Unstick some sticky's in General Discussion???
Maybe there should be a FAQ/Guide/Tutorial forum.
Why? Give one good reason to do just that.
I dont think the number of the stickies validates the creation of a whole seperate subforum just for them. Stickies are there for people, when they enter a certain forum, to notice first. That's their purpose.
ok just for kicks, of the 11 people that voted to unstickie, some stickies, could anyone of you tell me 1 stickie that could be unstickied and give a reason ?
...because as far as I can see they are all valid ( I know im kinda repeating myself a lil but what the hell) ..also im getting a little sickie of the word stickie.. so hurry before this thread gets put to bed
Wax and Mad have a point..
Equi what would you do with all the sticky topics in a separate place? browse through them again... wheres the point of being sticky then?
As for all the others.. use your brains (if you have any) a little before you vote, and give a valuable reason why you voted so.
right now, im comfortable with the amount of stickes.
Its just what the stickies is aboute that bothers me. I mean... a sticky should be for everyone. That movieproject sticky is not for everybody. its like 10 percent of the community that are intersting of that. Ofcourse the rest of us want to se the final movie. But how many can be a part of it? Not all around 900 active members can participate in that. And many of them are beginners. That mapping project is also selective which only a handfull of ppl can be a part of.
stickies like forum rules, anticheat law, i dont know aboute forum feature. but well those kind of stickies are of a greater value to the community. Bcos it apply to everybody. It also maintain a balance to this community.
But if there is too many stickies of which only a part of the community are intersting in. Then the stickies aboute rules and anticheatlaw well those who are importmant i guess eventuelly only become a vast ammount among the other, and they will be soon forgoten. Or what i think, it loose its value.
a subforum is a great idea i think.
Noone likes a full noticeboard with full of unnecasery messages. That not even apply to you!.
That is my point of view to this
agree with patrik about everything, except the maping project... the maps in e+... if the preson tryig to get them included plays their cards right, can have a direct impact... like if someone says that it would be great to have this map on 2!s Tag... and it picks up, so a few months later it s part of Deex's rotation... the map is pretty much part of e+...
Sure psy, agree, but there are 8 and only 1 that could be possibly argued should be a sticky, and later put as a normal post...(maye it will, who knows) but still.... and even then all this for 1 stickie its a bit silly right ?
Ill tell you, if I changed all the posts that get requested to be stickies, to stickies there would be a damn sight more... and there are still lots that could be stickies. There is some very useful info in theses forums that warrant stickie status.
ok a few days to give thoughts, then ill lock. it would have been nice for Equilibrium to enter the debate a little more.
After you enter General discussion there should be a (locked) subforum "Rules, guides and tutorials" with the very essentials. That would reduce the stickies to half or less and keep the useful separated from the useless.

I was thinking this exact thing tartaros while i was writing the previous post, certainly a guides and rules sub forum would be a great idea.
Yes, moving all the sticky's to one forum with the same subforums like General Discussion, Client and Setup Config...and all others would be the best solution in my opinion.
