Is it just me or are the sticky threads getting a bit excessive?

EnnisDelMar:
Should we sticky this thread? ;)

Hmmmm... I don't think I was being negative.  Just voicing my opinion is all.

I try to keep the stickies to a minimum and then de-sticky em when I think most people have seen them.  On this section, that usually means around 24 hours.  Like my message will be de-stickied early this evening.  I also increased the number of messages per thread so people could see more new messages, since sometimes you have to get to page two or three to see the end of the new stuff.

As people keep spreading out, I think we'll be able to put more and more system announcements and stuff in what is now the Welcome New Users forum, but will also become an announcements section soon enough.

I definitely see your point though.

BTW, I know a lot of us got used to the "list 100 threads per page" feature on IMDb (I did anyway).  I can't swing that right now here without slowing the forum system down.  As we grow, we'll probably end up on our own server and that opens up new opportunities.

Thanks, Phillip.  Again, I don't mind having something stickied for a while... but I've been coming here frequently, and like the "polls are at the polling place" was there for well over a day... and they were piling up, and I was just wondering about it all.

The stickiness seemed to be getting out of hand and no one was saying anything about it.  :angel:
