I petition, therefore i sign

Hmm we need away to get more people to sign, we need to get a mass protest going so the Moderators have to call in the internet riot police and spray us down with virtual water cannons!

Free Drinks at the Cantina, just put it on Rags Tab!

It sure as heck won't be nice.

The number of sticky threads should be kept to a minimum. Also, only threads containing very important information for the whole community should be sticky. Avatars certainly do not qualify.

well, it might not be vital, but it's nice for new members.

There are dozens of threads that are nice for new members. Should all of them be sticky?

That is what the Important SE4 Information sticky thread is for. It has a threads section in it.

Grrrr. OK, Fyron, you've made the point. But remember, you used to have a DEG avatar yourself http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif - and Dave has put a *lot* of work into doing something to greatly improve the quality of this board for all of us. As Mac would say, "just some ideas".
