Should Hugs and Smiles be Sticky?

Postby Gwared » Friday 17 September 2004 6:18:10pm

As people keep asking I believe the boards consensus should be considered.

I don't know, I don't think it's neccessary. After all, it's always at the top since this thread is popular.

It's also probably a bad time to ask seeing as there's so few people around at the moment.

I am strongly against too many sticky threads - i think a thread should be made sticky only if absolutely necessary. If you think a certain thread is that good - it will probably stay on the top anyway.

too much crowding you say? well that just means that people want to reply to other threads more at that moment :roll:

I think what Groo means is that there are other sticky topics that are crowding at the top now and that the hugs-topic could be made sticky instead of them.

I'm with Mint on this one.

Personally I feel that sticky threads should be kept to a minimum. Other board ussually only use sticky's for forum rules, donations, updates and other such info.

The way threads slide neatly out of view when they become less popular is a good thing IMO.

I don't see it as a major issue at the moment though.

If a thread can be forgotten so easily, I don't see how could be all that important.

But as I said before, at the moment I don't see it as a biggie.

Speaking of Stickies - we should remover the "Game Forum" add too.

The only Stickies that should stay there is Quiz and Birthday list (since it is used as reference) - thats it.

I'm with mint, here.
If people post, then it'll come to the beginning of the thread, and stickys should only be the more import ones
I vote No!

Do you think it could be a good idea to make the introduction thread sticky as it can also be used as a kind of a reference for new members?
