How to get your thread stickied
Some useful tips (AKA Observations by a new member).
1. Select a topic that either has no point or is about sexy people.
2. Encourage members to post according to a certain theme. Succesful themes include vehicles, photography, and sexyness.
3. It must be something that members of that particular forum can get something out of/get off to.
4. You must not let it get derailed in the first couple of posts. Bribe fellow users with karma to post supportive comments.
5. Post it when FM is offline.
6. Post your thread after becoming a mod first.
7. Sometimes, like in high school, the best way to be successful is to turn your thread into a prejudiced people only hangout. How did you think AU chats got so popular?
8. Take a lesson from the most popular and enduring stickies. Like AU chats. It’s got no mods, mindless chatter with no closure date, and Australians, three things that everyone likes.
9. Establish a reputation as an unknown member. There must be literally hundreds of stickies out there that stay open mainly because the mods forget they exist.
10. Post in the most untravelled, once awesome crapholes in the site. Like the Archives.
11. One comment saying “do a research noob” and the chance of your thread getting stickied disappears forever.
12. Invite prominent members to the thread, but never at the same time. Mek and Sheriff are each classics, but put them together and your successful thread about sexy pictures of bras on Australian planes gets turned into:
Shut up, Mek.
No u
No u
No u
Lol u 2 r retardedz like pace lolzlolzlolz.
