While the unseen hands of CBID fix the issues with these forums(hanging, slow, etc.) they also need to create a new sub-category that can be used to create compendiums for the collective knowledge base that exists from every BOTL/SOTL on this site. Acronyms, Newbies must read info., Whatcha smokin AZZHats, etc. would stop being thread topics and become our own little Wikis that we can update.

Any traction for this idea? IF so, sign my petition. If not, sign my petition.

How 'bout a sticky function that oh I don't know...actually STICKS!

Really!

There are some good threads that I thought were supposed to be stickied and yet...here they aren't.

Wikis within forums don't usually work. mainly due to a lack of user participation.

And stickys are one of my biggest gripes about forums. They often get out of hand (tons of stickys), get way outdated, and overall ignored.

I kind of like the simplicity of this forum.

Though if you guys don't mind an offsite wiki, I can set one up for you on one of my domains. Not as useful as what you envision here, but would let you collect the info (acronyms and such, wouldn't work for what are you smoking azzhats).

Most of the technical aspects are beyond my depth, but it just seemed like those threads that are of constant use for what were are smoking now, newbie education, and learning acronyms, etc. could have their own place or perhaps use the grey margins to the left and right of this forum to add dedicated windows that are boiled down to the info only for acronyms and newbie info, and the whatcha smoking window would keep a running total, poster name, and allow the cigar name.

Just a thought to clean things up and make them more fun, but I guess it might not work, who knows.
