View Full Version : Enough stickies!
They're going to take up the whole blooming front page. What's the actual criteria? Why, for example, is the fun thread about kangas not left to go up and down the board according to activity? Or Tech or No Tech?
(And no making this a Sticky - we Brits don't get irony . . .)

Eh. The forum's only been up a short time. Nine stickies ain't too bad, and I presume stuff will get unstuck in time.

I agree. The introduction and links threads are the only ones that need to be stickied.

I'll look into it. I "stuck" some of the threads initially because the board was new, and I thought they were worthwhile threads. But, it might be time to set some of them free. :)

In actuality, instead of taking up "the whole blooming front page" they are actually taking up approximately 1/4 of the page. :tongue: I mean unless you don't er... scroll. If that's the criteria then it um... depends on the font size you have set! :biggrin:

More stickies please :smile:
Spiffy, read my first line again, ta.
And by the time you read my post our lovely mod had already done some unsticking in response to my nag.

Some stickies could go.
I think the 5 questions and ask creator threads should be stickied to replace them though.

AHA!
THAT'S what's wrong!! I did realize there was a series of posts that seemed to remain at the top no matter what I did, yet about mid-way down the page things were functioning properly.
THANK YOU, MART! (Though I do feel kinda dumb I've been grumpin' about this for a couple days.......! ) I did not realize this was a 'feature.' LOL
Carry on.

Agreed. Too many stickies. And I'm not getting the criteria for stickies. Less important topics are stickied while important ones go unstickied (such as the 600 campaign!)

The moderator is great, any dumb stuff that happens is always going to be my fault, not Aegisbearer's!
:)
I like it with fewer stickies, too. The Welcome, Introduce Yourself, Wonder Woman Day, and maybe one or two others at most.
There are so many people here that threads are moving down fast, but they often come right back up, so that's fine.

Gail, I think it balances out ;-) You bring things to this board that I can't.
Beer, Cam? I'll add that to my to-do list :wink:

I generally like stickies at a minimum say 3 or so permanent ones plus a couple that rotate out every so often.
Plus you can us the Announcement feature (which you can make so it only shows up on certain forums) for extra special moderator news/info. It can be set to be permanent or to automatically go up and down for a limited time.
But each board is different so we don't have any set rules about stickies. Some boards need/want more stickies and some don't have any.

Thanks, Brandon! I'll look into that.
