Do we really need all of the pinned topics in the Contribution forum? There's only room for 5-6 new topics on the first page, and some of the pinned topics (such as the one I'd created) aren't even relevant anymore.
"I am Andrew Ryan and I am here to ask you a question:
Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his own brow?

No, says the man in Washington. It belongs to the poor.
No, says the man in the Vatican. It belongs to God.
No, says the man in Moscow. It belongs to everyone.

I rejected those answers. Instead, I chose something
different. I chose the impossible. I chose…
Rapture."

We my friend must be on the same wave length..  I was just thinking that very same thought tonight as I perused the contribution forum.. (  15 minutes ago too.. )

maybe all the pinned threads should be in its own thread..
In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

I totally agree: lots of those should go. The locked discussions on the "as credited" field have no further purpose, and neither does Ken's thread about adding genres, now that he seems to have decided not to add any further genres. Also, there are now two different threads with pictures of case types: it would be easier for everyone if they'd be merged into one. I'd really like it if things were cleaned up a bit...

I think we need a forum pinned block/ignore feature...

I think this topic needs to be pinned.

I think,

The topic Pinned: FAQ: Contributions and the Online Database should be unpinned, as its only a link to another pinned topic.

The topics Pinned: Slip cases and slip covers with images and Pinned: Case Types With Images should be merged.

The topic Pinned: Discussion on Credited As field should be unpinned, as the part 2 is also pinned.

Also one option would be to unpin all "Help and Instructions" -topics and create only one pinned topic, that has links to those topics.

Maybe add a new forum just for old or outdated pinned topics.

Perhaps call it "Archived Pinned Topics" or something along those lines.


That way they can easily be found by those that want to read them since they would all be located in one forum.

Well, that makes four of us then in agreement, as I too, was going to ask the same thing.

Maybe the FAQs - and other "well known" topics - should be consolidated and moved to an extra main menu entry - somewehe between Registration and Forums...

Then most of the pinned Topics could be removed...

Pinned threads... that's the stuff people use when they haven't realised the Wiki has been invented, isn't it?
