Sticky: Too many Stickies! (Cleanup Proposal)

While navigating the forums, I have noticed Several Stickies spread and cluttered and all discombobulated throughout the various Parent Directories and Sub Forums, most of which are in regard to the same thing.

Example:

City of Heroes Forums > English > Play Help> Player Guides

There are roughly 15 stickies, most of which referencing Guides. Ok, good, we're on topic.

Guides Such as Camo_Fire's compiled list of binds, Zombie Man's Guide to Guides, and other's are very neat, informative and in General doing exactly what they should be.

However, there's a point where it all becomes confusing, space consuming Clutter.

I am proposing a forum cleanup, not to a point where it is a "Cleanse it with Fire!" crusade; but a general relevance and date cleanup.

There are stickies regarding i12, i13 etcetera. When we are well into issue 16, on our way to issue 17, Issue 18 (Going Rogue) and Issue 19 is already underway and somewhat implemented in issue 18 as far as the Incarnate system is concerned.


That is my two cents, anyways.

Agreed. Not sure of what criteria would/should be used... but it would be a good initiative.

Perhaps folks should nominate current Stickies ripe for "un-stickying" and post them here... then someone can have this get stickyed as a list of stickys not to bother looking at.... (I kid...) but seriously, after they are collected a PM can be sent so that Mods can perchance make the appropriate changes.

I'd like the announcement forum to be almost completely desticky-fied. There's **FORTY** STICKIES!!

FORTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CAN YOU COUNT THAT HIGH??? FORTY!!!!!!!! STICKIES!??! We don't need FORTY STICKIES worth of announcements!!!! Instead of posting seven separate stickied threads about going rogue, POST ONE AND THEN REPLY TO IT WHEN YOU HAVE NEW DETAILS...... THAT'S WHAT YOU GUYS REQUEST US TO DO!! >.< >.< >.<

FORTY STICKIES!!!!!!!

raaarrrghghghhhhh

I love this idea too, it's a constant project whenever I see a big mass of stickies. This is one area where the OCR team can really use your folks help, so pm me (as moderator 08) when you see redundant or outdated stickies.

Thanks,

Now that we're on the topic of unnecessary clutter. Why is it that you keep 2 different forum handles?

One I use for moderation, one I use for announcements. It gives me different tools for different jobs. -theOcho

Posts by theOcho show up in the Community Digest.
Posts by Moderator 08 don't show up there.

Most times they really don't want to bring unneeded attention to some of the moderation. Or as theOcho puts it, different tools for different jobs.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Ok, but please hold off the Badge FAQ (Top of the badge section) until I get a copy, please? I forget where my original is, and I need to get the rest of the updates that people added too.

I'd like to suggest that there be three-four stickies in this forum:

1. The rules. Give Mod08 his position as the Banhammerer.
2. The major suggestion compilation for Heroes/Villains
2(cont). The major suggestion compilation for Heroes/Villains (If you'd like to break apart the Heroes/Villains thread)
3. How to search/Frequent Suggestions

I agree, it is actually hard to find the new announcements due to all the stickies in the announcement section... This kind of defeats the whole purpose of the section.
