      I admittedly just – don’t understand the real purpose and function of something like this. I just don’t really see the necessity of it. Threads already remain for posterity.

        @Roz To hazard a guess, it’s so you don’t have to scroll so far to find it? Kind of like how we always get ‘which X games are active?’ posts every now and then.

        Which could be an argument for that wiki that I’ve joked about that is closer to just a new, better maintained MU Connector, but with links to feedback threads and whatnot.

          Wouldn’t pinning threads be sufficient for that tho?

                Just an opinon here, but I think rather than go on raw popularity, it might be best to reserve pinned or preserved stuff for things that AREN’T likely to receive constant additions and postings, but are still valuable.

                The best example i can think of is like the “what to do if someone hacks your game” information that I think i remember on some board or another having stickied. Like after that is posted there’s not going to be discussion about it most likely. But if it’s in an active subcategory it might get buried. Things like that.

                Whenever I’ve seen boards use a best of thing, it just isn’t valuable. Because it just becomes part of the scenery. Or a certain group of people really likes it but it’s not super valuable to new people (who may not even get it) and it becomse part of the scenery even faster. But you could have a board specifically for directions on how to do certain things that would serve the same purpose, not that people would know to check there first but for the folks that like to be helpful then could scan that board and then link the relevant post in the current discussion.

                However, I acknowledge that not everyone’s brains are like mine and so maybe pinned and highlighted threads really do pop for some people every time. But arbiting what is worthy and dealing with people who maybe wonder why their thing wasn’t worthy but another person’s was just doesn’t sound like very much fun to me.

                  @mietze Yeah, agree. Pavel pinned the post I made a couple months back with as many links to MUX and MUSH code repositories I could find, and that’s the thing that I think is helpful to have pinned. Things that aren’t big dramatic conversations, but resources of information.

                      Here is my quasi-feedback, quasi-query (so we’re at half a post, roughly):

                      Is it possible to auto-lock a thread made in the game advertisements category? Was wondering if it would be more beneficial for game runners to be able to make their ad, the forum locks it after the initial post, and if people are wound up about it they can discuss it in the appropriate location(s).

                        @dvoraen Not that we’ve found. And we’d like the capacity for the ad poster to be able to make subsequent posts.
