I know that this is up to the owners/moderators, and none of our business, however these forums have become more and more annoying because of the darn "Sticky" messages. On every forum category I visit here, there are so many stickys that if fills up my entire screen, so I can't see what if any new posts have been made without scrolling down, because even the first real thread doesn't appear on the first page when the page loads up.
I know that it isn't a tremendous inconvenience to make a few more mouse strokes and scroll, but I really think that there should be some effort to make a forum easy to use. If nothing else, some of these sticky messages could be combined into a single thread, rather than having multiple messages. Actually, all of the stickys could be combined into two stickys, a "READ FIRST" sticky, and a "FAQ" sticky, and maybe a "Sadoun annoucements" sticky, but when you have 6 and 7 stickys before you get to the first real message, then this is crazy.
The way I see it, Sticky messages are intended for someone to read the first time they come to a forum category, and after that I doubt that most people even read the titles of the Stickys, so they don't serve any purpose other than to annoy people.
Just my opinion. Again, it's up to
Sadoun and the mods.
