Thread that stays on Top of DC forum? like the happy holidays thread, to act as an FAQ/Welcome type thing?

[Train]

I noticed those happy holiday threads stayed on top, that was cool, if the functionality is there too keep a thread on top of a forum, can we have someone, (mod, admin, whoever) slap one up with our basic team FAQ, like links to all the tutorials, basic info, gamebox URL's, tips, etc?

I think this would be really helpful to the guys who come here for the first time to see, and others who need a quick reference

oh, and a list of all the miniteams with links, info etc would be cool too.

I'll try to beat the mods into it, but it took forever just to get the feature put in FuseTalk.:|

 

[sciencewhiz]

someone needs to e-mail the mods. AFAIK the threads only last on top for 3 days. We would still need to bump it, or get it reposted every so often.

It would cut down on the "moooove back to the top" posts that only add to the useless traffic (like this post )

Im just thinking how annoying those threads get after a wile...

Instead of a contiuously bumped thead, it might be possible to put a nice banner in that gapping hole at the upper right corner of the DC forum page. It could say something like 'Welcome to the TEAM-Click for FAQ".

ya a banner or a link would be so easy to implement it would take like three lines of code in Cold Fusion, hell i could write it, if someone besides me will talk Zuni into pasting it into the categories.cfm file

Im not sure the variables names or the URL to send to, but you get the idea.

I don't know if we ever solved the question of where we should link the banner ad, but a thread like this, with links to the TA page, etc. wouldn't be a bad idea. Would also get more traffic to the forums which is good for Anand, et al.
