Once again, this really isn't a rule/FAQ issue, because it's not something one would think to look up, rather, it's just assumed by most newcomers that Demi-God means moderator.
I think it most certainly is a rules/FAQ issue. People don't like to read the FAQ or rules these days and then they decide to just create new threads willy-nilly.
Let's pretend it was a more serious problem, like people posting requests about illegal software copying. That's in the rules. But, according to your logic, we should change that rule because people don't want to read about it and assume they have the right to ask whatever they want.
Sure, it's be great if everyone constantly read over and memorized the rules and FAQs (perhaps had them tattooed to their forehead), but that simply isn't a realistic expectation. What's the problem with making the current system easier to understand (resulting in less confusion and fewer questions)?
One doesn't need to have the rules memorized, but people should know that when they have a question, there are guides and the FAQ available to them. A relatively small time investment on the part of the individual can lead to better results for everyone.
And the problem with changing the titles as they are now is that there is no guarantee that doing so will produce any favorable results. At some point or another, someone is going to confuse a mod for a non-mod.
Besides, there's a certain traditional aspect behind the titles here, and a lot of us like them.
It's a simple bit of PHP. When a moderator deletes the post, check the number of the rule that it violates in a little list that appears next to the confirmation dialogue. A form PM is sent to the offending user from a "catch-all" account.
I'm sure the admins would want to hear about this. Even if they don't ultimately use the idea, they might be able to rig up something else useful.
That's the neat thing about computers. If you have a repetitive task that you want to perform, five minutes of programming will make it completely automatic.
Your patronizing aside, it's nice on paper, but it will not end up working out like that.
Doctor Q has mentioned before that messing with vB code, while possible, can lead to unpredictable side effects.
The mods and admins here do a great job considering the traffic on these boards, and my post was really meant to reflect the attitude, not the technological standpoint, that people should have when approaching situations like one of their posts being removed or edited.
