It's been that way though, I've put up stickies and had assist remove and put up ones that they thought were more important, alot of times the board lets us know which ones they'd like sickied which really is the way it should be....
Good question, slojab: The six-headed hydra determines sticky-posts is answer to your question :)
===================== Who determines which posts are "sticky worthy" and will be stickied/removed?
Example. If there are already 4 posts stickied and one is just a lot of bs, who determines if it should stay or be removed?
If one mod removes it and another reinstates it, do we go back and forth removing/restoring it or appeal to admin like I might on a post that the same thing sometimes happens with? ============================
