    I'm well aware of this and constantly try to cut them down. I only just deleted the one about airsoft sites in Ireland earlier today.

    Also not moving.

    Not moving

    Sticky: Poll: Membership poll/Newbie Introduction
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showt...p?t=2055089198


    Can go. Not really enough new people for it to be relevant.

    Sticky: The Paintball Wiki
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showt...p?t=2055088432


    Could be put into another one of the information stickys.

    Sticky: Are airsoft guns and paintball markers legal? + 1 joule information.
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showt...p?t=2055003480


    DEFINITELY not moving.

    Sticky: Information about airsoft guns. Please read first if you are new/have questions.
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showt...p?t=2055044107

    Also not moving.

    Sticky: Airsoft/Paintball Forum Charter

    [/I]

    Again, not moving.

    Currently 9 there, could be cut down to six. Six is a decent enough number and one I try to keep it at.

    If you move every important one into a single thread, people will be less likely to read them. You need them on the front page. Catches the eye.

    Seeing as I'm wide awake and dont feel like sleep I thought I'd try and tackle it.

    Posts which no longer had a use have been unstickied.

    The legality thread has been merged with the information about airsoft guns to form a single SUPER thread full of important information.

    Just have to go throught it now to see if it actually makes any sense...

    Right well, that seems to have cleared it up a bit. 6 stickies. Possibly 5 if the Paintball wikipedia one can be moved to within another.
    (By the way, yes Rabbit, I know there is an MCD sticky too..:p)

    Any more "can we have this thread stickied please?" requests will be denied. Unless theyre really bloody earth shattering.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,877 ✭✭✭liamo333


    O1s1n how come you locked and stickied the airsoft humor thread, i thought we were trying to cut down on the stickies?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,121 ✭✭✭N.O.I.P.


    Ha just Pm'd him about that, I figure he did it by accident. Mods probably have too many buttons and just can't help but click on them :D

    No...but I AM working on a "no Spitfire666" sticky to go right across boards.ie, right under the MCD one.

    Progress seems to be going well.

    :p

    just remember that if they are not stickied, then they get deleted after a while.

    no point in having one sticky thread linking to un stuck threads as they will eventually get deleted unless they are stickied. So hence the reason for stickying stick worthy topics in the first place. do you under stand me, is it sticking with you?

    But ya, too many stickies and is bad. We are not too bad as the minute.
