Sticky/Official topics in "What Should a..."

I think we ought to have some official threads for some of the more common discussions discussions in "What Should a Werewolf Be". We don't have too many pages of stuff, but newer members consistently make the same ol' threads. Perhaps an "Official" thread for a few of these topics might clean up the forum... The thread could be either a total restart, or a merging of all the threads related to it. OR maybe something else.

I don't have any particular subjects in mind but I'm sure I could find a few with little effort.

Also, once any of these movies get made, the number of members here is going to suddenly; surge. And none of them will bother looking through the backlog of posts; an Official thread will ensure that not only would looking through not be a requirement, but also make it easy for a newer member to see easily the general trend of opinion here, especially if that person is making something they'd want opinions on.

Do something with a tag in the title, like...

[Official]
Official:

And so forth.

Too many stickies can make a forum look cluttered, and forces tons of threads onto the second page. I think simply linking the newbie to the thread it was discussed in is enough. That's my take on it anyways.

Well, i meant official, not sticky. Just put a bracket on the title and it'll stay on the first page, after which point it can be linked to.

Oh, in that case I have no objection. What's the criteria for a post to be "official"?

I'm almost not against rediscussions.

We can link Newbies to older threads, but we can let the repeats happen -- it'll open us up to new ideas and discussions. Not "Oh, we already talked about this, so we can't anymore."

... NO I meant have an official thread to them to discuss in!

My Official I mean you pick the biggest thread on the subject and tag it official, then merge the rest of the topics into it.
