Hmm, if all of the stickies are now under anonymous, does it mean that no one can edit them?
No one except Moderators & admins.

Actually that was part of the problem anyway.
Zen and I were fishing for some interest in maintaining some of the stickies, but it was being left to the admins and Moderators.

Well, if you have to be a moderator to have the access privileges to be able to edit sticky Posts, it shouldn't be a wonder that it's being left to the mods/admins. Unless this forum software permits (which I doubt it does) the selective granting of access rights (ie: ability to edit certain threads, but not others). I'd be happy to take responsibility for maintaining the stickies, but I have no desire at all to be a moderator in general. (Been there, done that, it's a near-thankless task.) I'll leave the cat-herding to those more temperamentally suited to such things. Let me know if I'm wrong and you can grant limited-Moderatorship.

This is sad news indeed, Zen was wise back in the days when I was playing the dom1demo.

You know the growing irrelevance of the stickies is getting really annoying. I think the easiest solution might be to unsticky zen's original Posts, have arryn make new ones and have a moderator sticky them instead.
