Maybe we could relax a bit with the stickies in OT?

Why did we start syickying individual job postings? While I realize that some members might be interested, isn't the unemployment thread sufficient? If you're looking for a job, just look in the unemployment thread.

Xbox360 thread: has the console's been out long enough now that it can be moved to games/programming? I think so.

Two NFL game threads: Couldn't this be just one thread? The games are several hours apart and there's a very good chance that it will be the same posters in both threads, so why not consolidate?

Ipod thread: Why is this even stickied at all? What percentage of ATOT actually owns a 60 GB Ipod video? :confused:

"Gentlemen, we have ladies here": OK we get the point, it's been posted for months now. Just plug it into the FAQ and apply it, I don't think the sticky is necessary at this point.

Am I the only one who feels this way?

Consideration.
The two NFL threads will probably fall after Sunday - that is what happened last week.
There will probably have a new SB thread created and stickied.

The Job threads should soon fall; they have served their purpose and eventually will become outdated (1-2 weeks at most for usefulness).

The Gentlemen thread exists because there are still adolecents here (mind if not body).
That issue has discussed in a previous thread.

That accounts for 5 stickied threads.

I have no exposure for the Ipod or the XBox thread; therefore I will not attempt any explanation for why they are up there. Zim is a respected member; therefore there may be a good reason for it being there.

Hey, don't ask, don't tell. It's all good.
I told him to keep it quiet, I don't need all of ATOT knowing how I like to spend my weekends, especially the wild ones I have when you're around.

i am a big fan of stickies, but i think that there is a limit, and there are too many.

i dont get why the linux db/admin + xbox threads are still there.
the linux thread should be in the job thread (at least when i posted a job for my company not only was my thread locked but i was sent a harsh email by the mod on duty to stick it in the networking thread)
and the xbox....well...who cares at this point...

Down to 5.
One is critical.
One will be needed until all donations are properly made.:evil:
One will be useless in a couple of week - keeps the trash under control for now.
One is needed as I stated earlier - until common sense rules OT; the adolecents (age, body & mind):(

Looks like the lack of thought occured before posting this thread

Because Qosis is offering his/her CS server as a "service" to ATOT members and isn't a "S/W issue/qestion" IMO Drakkon :)
