Collated stickies

Mark2spark

Whilst the forum clearly needs tidying up - thanks to heather w for attempting a start on this - I'm not sure that the FAQ's should be hidden away in a sticky within a sticky as such?

The thread that has over 600,000 views is the one to tuck away, surely? That's the main one where people post new questions that aren't specific airline threads. Or lock it even.

Just my tuppence worth.

My concern is that people who are not regular visitors will not know that they exist. A non-regular poster will then post something that may be pertinent to those threads but not situated there. Worse though, a non-regular lurker will go away without knowing that the information exists.

All board guides have been asked to collate all stickies on all forums into 1 sticky this is why the post has been unstuck.

So the stickies therefore become meaningless in that case since nobody will even attempt to read them (its difficult enough to get posters to read them now and this now makes it virtually impossible to do so.

Will this be reviewed in this particular forum's case as the 2 stickies to which we refer are that vital to keeping new posters particularly informed?

Agreed. I see the FAQs and other important threads are having to be manually bumped every day by dedicated users to keep them visible. Which also leads viewers of the forum list to assume there are new posts but actually not - just a bump.

Is it possible that this new forum we see comments about cannot handle multiple stickies, that's progress I assume!!!!
