I was just curious as to what influences and factors are considered when administrators and mods choose to make a thread a sticky?

We weigh the value of the thread according to the forum that it is in. How's that for a general answer?

After a thread is started, there might be several things that get it stickied:
  • If it addresses an issue or problem that is relevant to a lot of people.
  • If it is viewed by lots of people and seems to hold some importance.
  • If it is important to WT or its staff.
  • If it is suggested to be stickied and that is agreed upon by the staff.
  • And if the value of the thread seems to be great according to the forum that it's posted in.
  • Sometimes, convenience...like the story thread.
And there's other factors, but that may be the gist of it.

Dave

Thanks Dave, I'll be using those tips for when my forum begins to get off the ground.
