This all does seem to a lot about nothing. Most guys refer to their equipment as girls. Driving my 4WD truck in a snow storm and I say to the truck; just get me home girl. Or, with the old Ford 8N that used to plow the driveway and at 0' in a blizzard; come on girl, start and let's plow the driveway.
This is a tractor site as Hodak said. It couldn't have or wouldn't have been anything but something to do with tractors and this is Wallace, who has helped many and I have never seen anything improper from him.
Not to open up another can of worms; can I say worms without offending anyone? Maybe someone has wormaphobia. To those who do, I apologize. Once again, this is how society is evolving. One person in many is offended and the majority must bend for the few. I'm not saying that there aren't certain times or things that shouldn't be changed, but this isn't one of them.

Victor, you're just looking for trouble I can tell. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

As RobS said, moderators cannot change titles of posts. We could remove it completely, or edit the content of individual posts, or remove selected posts from a thread(any replies to that post will get removed, too), but we can't change the title.
You could always re-post the pictures in a new thread with a different title, then notify the moderators requesting us to remove your original post. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

You've never been offensive on TBN Wallace, far from it - don't worry about it at all.
While I was not offended by the subject header being discussed here, I would like to offer a perspective that I haven't seen voiced here.
While scrolling this forum's list of threads, I saw the subject header in question and did not open it. Why? Because with the Internet's reputation as a disseminater of child ****, I am a bit cautious about opening any message with a a risque title that might be someone selling child ****.
But if I had opened the message and seen a picture of a tractor (which I guessed is all it was) I would never have thought to scold someone over it. Anyone can innocently come up with a subject header that some folks might misconstrue. And many of us are probably fairly adept at discerning double entendres and word associations that might be seen as objectionable by some, but amusing to ourselves and others.
But the point is I was put off about reading the note just in case the title was someone trolling for child **** customers. On the slight chance that it was, I didn't open it. If I am posting on TBN, I don't want people skipping my message because of a subject title that could be associated with someone selling child ****. Anyway, I never did open that message thread.

As you can certainly see by now, it is about a back-hoe. So, go ahead and open the message. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I never once thought of anything but a tractor. If anyone frequents this site, they would recognize the poster and know that it would never be anything but a cutsie title about a tractor. (or backhoe /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif) If there was anything on TBN that didn't belong here, the moderators would have deleted it very quickly. No member would have let that go on without hitting the notify moderator button.
I see nothing wrong with title or content. As a matter of fact, I think it was very good. It is the humor that keeps this site going. Just my thoughts. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I think the world has become a little too serious if you have to apologize for something like that. And, frankly, if one IS offended, perhaps he or she needs therapy.
In the TBN context, that idea would be the last idea a normal person would have IMHO..
