Please delete old stickies

[kyleplusitunes]

Really starting to become a huge annoyance.

I agree

 

[Michigun]

Well most of em are event stickies...

When we don't have events you complain when we do you complain about the stickies promoting them...:banghead:

 

[1245A Defender]

some of the stickies are for PAST events!!

there should not be MULTIPLE stickies for events at one venue (gander mountain)!

 

[lil_freak_66]

could merge event stickies into one super thread,would make it easier.

No it wouldn't ask my brother he has to try and keep track of who will be at what event. It is bad enough having multiple forums to keep track of without having everything in one giant mess.

I will look into getting the old events removed...

As for the Gander Mountain Issue we are talking about multiple locations and multiple dates. These are separate events.

Please note my thread on stickies and how to help keep this from being a problem in the future!

Just scroll down the page people! We fight daily for rights we shouldnt have to fight for, and you cant scroll down a page!? Arrrrgh! We are lucky enough to have OCDO, and on top of that, we have mods that are good enough to sticky our events which, as I've said before, are the lifeblood of our movement. Don't be so lazy and ungrateful.

No offense to the OP, but I am a little annoyed, too:

1) The thread title is completely uninformative as it appears on the thread list. Just a string of pleases. A more informative version would be something like, "Too Many Outdated Stickies." Or, "Please Delete Old Stickies".

2) The most effective way to ensure a moderator sees your request is to PM him.

Some time ago, I brought up the point that this web site was an inconvenient mess, and that MOC needed its own site, or that Mike and John needed to give a couple people at least very limited moderator status to take care of the stickies and some other crap. Mike and John refused, MOC developed its own web page, and events and other details are listed there.

2 stickies, one for events and another for FAQ's would be cool (used to have that, worked well) but it isn't needed, because MOC already corrected it. I would be happy if there was one sticky, which simply had a link to MOC's page.

stickies are a ham fisted way to keep events at the top

but i think that if the event is important enough to enough people it will stay at the top anyway!
as yogy said, if folks dont wanna come, theres no way to stop them!
if events arent compelling enough to stay on top by themselves, maybe they should be canceled.
some things should really be at the top all the time. maybe a limit of 7 important things?

Not everyone uses the MOC website.

 

[eastmeyers]

MAKE A POLL!!! Ahhh I LOVE polls!

Not everyone uses the MOC website.

If there was a sticky with a link to the events forum/calendar, I bet more people would (have to) use the MOC website.

I dont use it very much either, which is why I would rather see the stickies over there, rather than here. :lol:

To be perfectly honest I would be fine with that. I am sure others would get in an uproar... but really those of us that have to generate the event notices would not complain

events will be bumped to the top with new posts about people attending them, works much better, i have missed every event this summer because they were sticked, and not bumped.
