Title: how many sticky threads do we need in Apple Talk?
Post by: East Coast Hustle on September 17, 2009, 04:32:38 PM
seriously, I didn't know we were suffering from sticky thread deprivation.

Now that I know, I'd be happy to sticky every single fucking thread in Apple Talk, since that seems to be what's needed.

Nothing should be stickied.  It'd confuse trolls and invaders, like the streets of Worcester or Providence.

I agree with Richter, unless it is administration putting up a message for us all to see for whatever reason (and they have their own section for that) then the only thing keeping threads at the top of Apple Talk should be activity!!!

Red flags, obviously market targets for trolls, griefers, and douchebags.
A stickied thread tells them what we want everyone to know, like saluting an officer in view of a sniper.

How about we move the WOMP stuff to multimedia menace, leave the intros sticked, and cut the rest loose to plummet to page 6?

I like the WOMP idea.  I'd leave the Intro and Attention Noobs thread stickied though.  I notice a lot of people do read the latter, often when they sign right up, so it seems to be doing the job.

Unless someone wants to write a new, spiffy, updated for 2009 advice for noobs?

sticky every thread in page one so that any unsticky thread cant come past page two.

Create a bunch of empty threads sticky them, then lock them. Fill the first page with them. ON EVERY BOARD.

I did that in 2005. Results were... Mixed.

I like the new meritocracy. If it's good it's on top.

I just moved a bunch of WOMP shit to MM.  Some of it is stickied.  As that is your board, you might want to decide what to do with them.

It needs to be stickied and kept with the WOMP stuff for ease of use.

I actually was going to suggest that Spagbook get left where it was, stickied, to encourage n00b participation?

I was being all orderly and shit.  It's multimedia, that's the obvious place for it.

Even if it gets all covered in LMNO mucus.

I am not stating that this is a done deal, however.

It feels like when your mom moves the furniture when she gets bored with the house.

/hated that, but so be it, is resigned to only meta-complain...which I failed at

We had to rearrange the bedroom the other day.  My wife wanted the bed up against a wall, but we really only had one wall that didn't have base-board heat or some other kind of obstruction.  It was LARP-Tetris or something.

Nah, there was more "fuck" "ow my toe" and "we gotta move THAT thing"'s.  But I suppose they were quasi-musical.

Post by: Jenne on September 18, 2009, 01:17:08 PM
I'm the complete opposite of that since I always hated the rearrangement when I was younger.  I find one way that works best for the flow of the room, and stick to it, unless stuff gets added and I have no choice but to move it around.

Jenne,

Total stick in the mud

I'm like this too. I like to pick something and stick with it. However, I will be reversing the positions of the living and dining rooms at some point in the future.
