Quoting ScaleOnly4Me, post 738
why all the stickies havbe to appear at the top of every page in the page lists of forum threads? as in page 1, 2 3, 4
and response from IBpark:
That is just the way the software functions. Stickies always go on top! =)
and answer by ScaleOnlyForMe:
Not true,, on most forums (vbullitin too) stickies are only present on the first page of the forums
My thought: I'm with ScaleOnly4Me. I went to the Kit Building Forum, and had to scroll down a screen to see anything. First on the list was the SubForum: Kit Manufacturer Direct Support, and I didn't wish to visit there. Further down, two stickies that really don't need to be stickies ("Where did all the kits go?" and "Wing Load Calculator"), neither of which I wanted to visit.
Then on the next page... there's the sub forum again, and the two sticky posts. Once again, I didn't wish to visit them on the first page, and you certainly didn't need to insert them again on the second page.
If I had wanted to see them, I'd have done that on the first page of the thread. Waste of space on the subsequent pages.
And while I'm endorsing suggestions from others: quoting BadSplice, post #7752, this forum:
When you go to a forum, all you see is control bars and ads... you actually have to scroll down the page to see ANY of the actual forum.... do we really need 4 different control bars at the top of the page? and 2 rows of ads spaced out between them?
My comment: Agree! How about putting some content on the page that appears before you scroll down!

RCG - Stickies on first page only
Flying Giants - Stickies on first page only
Wattflyer - Stickies on every page
First page only please.
Stickies are now set to display only on PAGE 1.
