There are 10 posts "stickied" in the General Firearm Discussion forum. I'm thinking this is...10 too many?

"PSA for classified ads", "Stolen gun database", "Pricing your gun for sale", these 3 all belong in the "want to buy/sell/trade" section.
S&W, Garand, Springfield, Sig, Glock, 7.62x54r, Mosin --- These 7 can all be unstickied.

As an admin, you have to review every post to make sure people aren't breaking the rules. So that view works great for you.
As a user, I like to review posts by category, pick and choose which I find interesting.

I wish the GLOCK stickie would get some attention/editing. New stuff needs added.

I’m sure if you did the research then pm’d edogg the info to add to the thread he’d be happy to update it.

There's truth to what you're saying.

But . . . when people read section-by-section, they don't bother looking at certain sections that are generally inactive, or of less interest. And then, those people will miss threads that ARE of interest.

That's why we hear things like, "New Years shoot? What New Years shoot? I had no idea there was one!"

Or, "Why didn't anyone say something about that great deal on ammo?"

Or whatever. Pick and choose your sections to read, and you'll miss stuff that's inevitably of interest. To me, it would make more sense to use "view unread posts" and then just scan down the thread titles to find those that interest you . . . regardless of the section they're in.

Indeed. I recently updated it (even though I’m not the original author, I inherited it). Let me know what’s missing and I’ll make the changes.

43X and 48 come to mind immediately. I'll see what else I can find.

:yes:


And many of those were requested to be made a sticky. A thread starts, and if it’s a lot of good info, folks will chime in that it should be made a sticky.
