Further thoughts.

Changes...Early Spoiler Rules
Spoiler Tags!
This is a SPOILERS OKAY zone
This is an ON TOPIC discussion board

Do I need four stickys telling me the same thing? These need to be consolidated.

Questions Specifically for Jim, part 2 - wacky or not, here we come!
Questions Specifically for Jim
Ultimate Jim Butcher Interviews Master List Part I & II

Another duplication. Why not just have one master list link in the other two and unsticky them.

Series Timeline
Short Stories -- Discussion Threads   

Why are these stickys? Do I really need to be told about these threads each time I visit the board. No.

Topic List   
No opinion on this one. Could at least be useful if maintained. If not then remove.

Can one of you Admins please tidy up the Dresden files spoilers board.

Totally agree, raised this a long time ago.

What was the admins response?

Scroll down!

Nothing to see here. No balls.

<sigh>

This is my last post on the issue.

I have been polite throughtout the thread, and don't take back any of the points I've made.

I think your looking for a battle, but I'm really not interested.

Shecky, imo its better to fix a problem than work around it because you don't know how. Sounds like your a typical worse is better convert.

Priscellie, this board is for suggestions, the OP made a good one, but you basically ignored him rather than find a fix, this is nonsense.

If you are forced to see 10 stickies each time you visit the first page of a board which only contains 20 posts than that is the very definition of hugely limited usability. I wonder what google analitics has to say about the number of users forced to wade through pages of paging.

Would it be possible to remove some of the older "sticky" threads that are not really relevant anymore or combine them with others, to make more room on page 1 of the boards?  Sometimes there is barely room left for new threads and moving to page 2 is often the 'kiss of death' for a thread... :-\


Seconded

There are hundreds of options to explore, such as; Optimizing Stored Procedures, Table index's, Views, Server upgrades, Migrating the forum or Moving host, to name just a few.

This is nonsense, and hugely limits the usability of the forums. Please sort it out.

One work around at least would be to get all the stickies listed under one post, per forum.
