I am seeing so many stickies on some forums for threads that seem not to be part of idea of the forum. I think we should cut down the stickies since it would make the forum much neater.

If the forum has a Moderator, PM them about it and they can unstick old threads that are no longer useful. If the forum doesn't have a Moderator, post in here what needs to be cleaned up and I'll take care of it.

We should probably sticky this thread; it's a good reminder to everyone.

If we are talking about the Frontroom, I think we should un-sticky the Texas thread and the Beat the person above you thread. Both amount to what the one word story thread is, so they should all be on the same level.
I received a PM about this topic, but thought it'd be best to address the matter here rather than privately so that you can all see my stance on it.
Firstly I agree that, in some areas of the Org, there are far too many stickies, some of which have become obsolete as the membership base has diversified; in the example of the Texas thread, I brought up it's sticky status within a day or two of becoming a moderator, but the general consensus was that it was as much an institution of the Frontroom as the Babe Thread and the numerous relationship topics... thus, it stayed put. This also applies to a thread that we considered locking due to the difficulty in ensuring the rules are observed due to language barriers.
Really though, it isn't as simple as someone saying "this needs to be unstickied/locked" and it happening, there needs to be a consensus among both staff and members. There's a few stickies in the Frontroom that I feel are no longer relevant or require the 'status' of being a sticky, but for every member satisfied by the Texas thread being unstickied, there will be some who are annoyed.
EDIT: I'm going to unstick and merge some of the current stickies in the Frontroom, we'll see how reactions go and then decide whether they'll stay that way. :3
I think the Hunks thread and links to popular threads would be good to unsticky and I don't see why the Gallery and Family photo's threads can't be combined.

Why should the Hunk Thread be unstickied but the Babes one not? Blatant sexism! :laugh4:
I'm going to keep the LtPT thread as-is, but the image ones have been merged together. :bow:

Most male members get insecure seeing all those males. Not me.

I think having fewer, more active threads is better than more less active ones.
