What is a sticky?

The whole reason for the selfsufficientish website was to offer a place where anyone can ask, HOW DO I...? So who knows why it has taken us so long to have a HOW DO I? section, but here it is. So if you want to know how to do anything selfsufficientish then here is the place to ask.

What is a sticky?

Post: # 221923Post Spuddle »

This isn't really a 'how do I?' - more of a 'what is?' :scratch:
Can someone please explain what a sticky is?

It's a thread that doesn't disappear if no-one's posting on it. If you go to the board index and look in any of the sections the sticky threads will stay at the top. All the others slowly work their way down the list unless someone posts something on it.

Bit long-winded but does that explain it?

... alternatively, it's a tiny stick.

Or the cat I had at college
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Ah, right. I think I understand now. :thumbleft:
The messages with the icon that looks like someone's stepped in dog pooh and said something unmentionable are stickies. Yes?
Thanks for the explanations everyone.
