What is a "Sticky?"

[Dee Wilson]

Would someone explain to me what a "sticky" is? I looked for terms, but couldn't find it.
Thanks,
Dee

A "sticky" is a term used for a thread that is "stuck" purposefully at the top of the forums. Sticky threads are usually announcements, Terms of Service and Media Links. It's a moderator/administration option that can be chosen to keep important threads "stuck" at the top of the first page of the forums. You'll see a little yellow post-it note icon to distinguish which threads are "stickys" at the top of the forum front page that lists the threads in that forum. :)

Thanks so much for taking the time to answer my question.
