It's okay if you have any questions.


Can you learn anything from an experiment if you only run it once?

Very good point another mod or IK should run the experiment with the same controls to verify the findings.

I approve of the experiment. :hai:

That fact this breaking Games is a possibility in some people's minds is a testament to the robust foundation of vbulletin. ;)

I am amazed that stickies overflowing onto page 2 didn't break some weird bit of radium code, quite frankly.

I can't sticky threads in games or I would do it myself

e: which is bizarre because afaict every single other button works everywhere in games and games subforums and I'm 99% sure that I have at least one button in games that I didn't have as a d&d IK.

I was gonna do that, but I decided to follow the "sticky whatever you want" advice instead and stuck a couple threads from three years ago because why not.

im fine with having a "featured" thread every so often but they should probably be good threads like the shmup one and not shitpost threads

Exclusively sticky shitposts IMO.

I don't think "number of threads that are stickied" is an important number and so the mods should sticky any thread they fancy

Let the fools who stand before us be destroyed by the power you and I possess.
If it means more people play good shmups like Thunder Force IV and Darius Gaiden then I will allow it

I haven't played a shmup in years, maybe this thread will convince me.
