Trolling is what trolls do.

My appreciation for Dire Straits goes beyond Brothers In Arms, from their self-titled debut to On Every Street. I just think that by putting your suggested exclusion of Brothers in Arms in the thread title, you're making a tribute thread for the band that is a bit exclusive of those who (also) appreciate Brothers in Arms which makes no sense.

If it was me, I'd just make an appreciation thread on Dire Straits and then perhaps pick on Brothers in Arms in my post if I wanted to, not in the title.
