There are just too many stickied threads in FS/FT forum. Half of the front page is taken up by them. Can we do something about this? As we can only bump our threads every 4 hours it is kind of unfair that they fall off the front page so quickly.

Help?

It's only temporary. Our members must be warned about the newest bad or questionable traders in case any are in a current deal with the one in question or if they are considering a deal.

Once those issues are resolved, those threads will be un-stickied.

Increase number of threads per page.

Those stickies are valuable info for some traders. Do like Minendo said, go up to 75-100 ttp.

Increase number of threads per page.

Well, that would fix my own specific situation but what about the vast majority of the traders that are still using the default setting? I am not looking to buy my own gear, I want them to buy it. If it falls off the front page more quickly than normal for them I'm in the same boat that I was in before I adjusted the post/page setting.

But yeah...

Or resolution.

That won't change the number of threads per page. :)


I don't see why all the trolls in the stickies can't be added to the master troll list instead of all getting their own sticky.

No but you see more of them without scrolling.

Because they are trolling right now.

I want them to see it too. Fixing my settings does nothing for the others does it?..........

Personally, I wouldn't be bumping my thread early then coming in here and drawing attention to it.
:p ;)

It was less than an hour early and I was in school. I wasn't gonna be able to bump it at EXACTLY the 4 hour mark. And that post sure fixed the problem now didn't it? Thanks for the bump though. :)
