ok the sticky issue here needs to be discussed further. what should we do? its ridiculus, people dont read them and they dont see threads 5 places down the list and starts new ones instead. its just too many and really not well organized imo.
edited to "the second random thread" as it derailed pretty fast lol. |

| id like to see this place cleaned up. nothing more. if you dont care then you dont need to post in this thread either. im trying to get a discussion on how it could be better for new members, now people are leaving one after one. |

| I care. I just think you're wrong. I'd rather have five stickies than none. And as for people not reading them and then leaving, if they aren't going to bother to read the stickies, I don't mind them leaving. |

| i don't have an issue with the stickies. There are only 5 of them. Getting rid of 1 or 2 won't make much of a difference to people starting new threads for things which have already been discussed. |

SCD: 5 Sticky threads is certaintly not "a lot". Practically speaking, and compared to other forums out there, we don't actually have enough stickies. I wouldn't mind 7-8. They *may need to be better organized, but removing them is likely to do worse than better. Thats something common sense would tell at least 90% of the population.
So newbies aren't reading the stickies enough, so in order to attract them towards the stickies... we're going to remove them completely?!
Clearly a wtf moment for me.
Also, lovehate makes an excellent point. "Who the are you, the thread police?" 2 thumbs up for you lovehate.
He's right, you bitch more than anyone I know about proper thread etiquette.
If you're trying to get this place "clean", it would be more worthy of your time to report people to digi then to make a thread that will be gone in a week and likely read by 1-2 newbies in total.
And last, if someone removed the stickies I'd shoot them in the face. This is because they are also used by long term members like me and have some very valuable links that I still use till this day. Maybe... and I'm just saying maaayyyybbeeee, if you had actually read the stickies yourself at some point and gone through all the links you'd understand how important they really are. As a tip for the future, try thinking about the threads you make and maybe one day they will actually serve a purpose. |

Yeah there really are not a lot at all.
I've been on forums with 20+ now that's a joke.
5 Stickies causing people to leave? That's a recipe for a good rofl waffle. |

| lol clearly im the only one finding it annoying then. its just that people dont seem to read them and whats the point then? stickies are good if they are used, updated etc etc. |

| people choose the path of least resistance, noobs think just posting "your" question is quicker than reading a sticky, you will not change this behaviour unless you can sanction it.. |

| Those stickies are not appealing at all. |
