First one is worthless (no offense...)

Yes trust me the Admins on Nick's sites are wonderful and do not favor ANYONE! those threads were stickied a LONG time ago in a time when there were few guides few members and it was Beta 1 so please keep in mind that those threads were very helpful back in Beta 1 when making money was REALLY hard. :) please do not accuse people of something that you dont know everything about :)

My criteria for stickies and please dont start saying this meets that.. etc... I will tell you that one thing I think of is "Is it something people will refer to frequently".

Ok, now I have seen some guides that had some GREAT and VERY USEFUL information, however if I have never found it necessary to refer to, send others to for assistance, etc. I dont consider sticky'ing it. Its great that its there, but its not information that is commonly referenced and therefore doesnt need to be stickied.

I will not debate thier sticky worthiness, I will not second guess my admin/moderating peers.

I myself find the first one humorous. An entertaining glimpse into the silly hints the game gives us as it changes screens. Useful? Not particularly, but it is humorous. Would like to see it updated with more of them. :)

After reviewing this post - the Mods concur that the stickys need a review as some are older now and new information / gameplay has taken over.

We will begin the review shortly, and come up with a gameplan on stickies.

Meantime - let me just point out that I take no sides to stickies nor does any other Mod. The information at the time was useful and there are also others to be added. As there has been a rather large expansion of members on POF recently, and Modding is a volunteer option - it does take a bit of time to get around to all the posts and review the goings on.

Should any member have an idea or suggestion (no - do not ask to be a Mod, but a good suggestion) feel free to post it in the Site Suggestions Forum where we can continue reviewing and making improvements.

Thanks in advance,
Max

At the time, we had very little guides and people just kept posting about the same topics over and over. So these were stickied at the time to start getting some guides going so people would have something to refer to instead of re-posting the same questions over and over.

Regardless, both are out dated and useless now. Both have been unstuck.

Wow, you really don't know myself or the moderation staff at all if you think this. I refuse to comment further on such ridicules flaming attempt.
