Do we *really* need 5 stickies? When you get more than three, they get pretty pointless.
How 'bout unstickying the calendar (I'm going to stop doing it as no one other than me bothers with it) and the sightings thread?
Alternatively, can we have a single stickied MOB Resources thread with internal links to Road Conditions, Sightings, Local resources, etc. Then the only other one we need need is the Check in Thread.
Amusing, coming from the author of two of 'em. :P
I think we need a Mr.I's being a jerk-hole stickie. And another one for when Spidey gets all pissy. We could possibly use a third to track the new oil leaks springing up on my bike...srsly. :P
Just for that I'm going to post up 50 stickies all saying the same thing:
"Huh huh. I made a sticky. Huh huh."
Steeeeeeeky.
Okay, maybe not.
Seriously, 5 out of 40 threads is probably the "max load" for stickies, but I think they're all valuable.
Leave 'em, just don't ask for any more.
I deleted the calendar so that cleans things up a bit. But I still think we should have just two stickies: "MOB Resources -- Road Conditions, Sightings & Local Info" and "MOBsters -- Check In Here". It still keeps all the valuable info/threads stickied in one place.
I'm stayin' out of this one... [popcorn]
Nah if it's all encompassed then someone might not bother to open the thread where road conditions is figuring it's just Rob humping a streetfighter again.
If nothing else, sightings is a waste. You can't walk down a street in SF and not see ten monsters zipping about.

Can we sticky this thread?

Pfft-you write too much typically-no one reads your suggestions. We're just happy not to have ads. Who cares what colour shit is after I've clicked it?
Apparently, you read 'em. ;D You could just ignore 'em, ya know, instead of being rude.

i want a sticky (that just sounds weird) for ragging on dtm's dirtbike maiming skills and wmd farts. [thumbsup]
Spidey, if more than two stickies is considered cluttered I think you just need a bigger monitor. ;D
As I said originally . . .

I think a stickie stating that discussing DTM's flatulence is forbidden is in order. (You need therapy. And some Lysol spray.)
I like the calendar sticky as I can see when the AFM races are and I think the local resources one should stay. The rest are pretty useless.
can we get a countdown timer to the next afm race like the racing/trackday thread?
DMonkey?
Get me a consensus and I'll see what I can do.
Also, I take bribes.
I decided to be a dictator and just do what I thought would make sense:
The "check in" thread is unstickied. No new posts since Feb, so I think everyone made it from TOB.
The sightings thread is unsticked as well. Seems like it gets bumped enough anyway that it doesn't need stickying.
So you're down to two: Road conditions and Local Info.
My suggestion is you just use stickies for threads that don't see a lot of posts, but are constantly looked at:
Permanent info (i.e. The current local resource thread) and Current Events (i.e. This month's calendar)
Road conditions (IMHO) is just like the Calendar thread. Doesn't update often, but gets read frequently.
Thanks, DM.

Dictator > consensus. Srsly.
I'll redo the calendar if anyone actually uses it. I was under the impression that I was generally the only one who added stuff to it.
I suspect a lot of us look at the Calendar, it's just that few contribute to it.

or as a public service, a countdown to dan's next wmd fart? :o
I look at the calendar but don't post in it. So please keep it. [thumbsup]

Now what can we do about getting rid of too many b*tches in here?

JC, you're not the only biatch in here when DTM goes. It's still going to say 2 or 3 [cheeky]

^^^^^^^^ Troof.
...and if you just replace "calendar" with "board" that pretty much sums up my entire life here on the DMF, too. [cheeky]
I should keep posting on this thread every few minutes so that it appears to be a sticky.

+ 1
Without you, I'd only have 1 social secretary and she won't cover the DMF.
I'd be lost.
