My Problem: When you go to your groups on your list, have you noticed that all stickied threads are unlocked when they're supposed to be locked and stickied at the same time?

Usually in groups and forums, there are stickied and locked rule threads and some other stuff. I'm not sure if I'm the only who's noticing it here and the groups but it would nice fixing that little bug or whatever.

Thanks!

They're still locked. They just don't appear to be. This is because it seems like people don't bother to read locked threads.

The Icons were switched about a month ago. Locked icons use to override the sticky icon, now the sticky icon overrides the locked icon. Don't worry, they are still locked.

Hmmm....


It's make some of ours lives easier though. Oh well, I'm still used to the idea of the locked icon overriding the stickied one even though the "Sticky:" text was by the titile.

I think it’s more of a psychological affect, people tended to not read the rules/faq threads. So if it appears to be unlocked and posted by an official, people will read the thread and then reply too it. Little do they know, they just read the rules… that’s my take on it anyway.

Exactly right Yoozel. What's the first thing you do when you see a locked thread normally?
You go past and don't read it. With this new system, there's a higher chance that people are going to read it.

unless it's blatantly obvious from the title why it was locked, i'll usually read it to see why it was locked, and if possible, get a laugh out of it.

But then that's me.
