• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

What determines a sticky thread's time?

What determines how long a stickied thread stays up?

I ask because some new releases have been made, and they were dropped to the regular forum within a day or two it seems, but some have been up there for a long time. I'm just curious is all.

Cheers,

I think it's all manual, as in it's the mod's discretion.
 
Depends on who stickies/unstickies it. I go by interest if a minor release as when to sticky and for unstickied, I go by the amount of them vs the time from the last post.

Personally I try and make threads with freeware releases more of a priority since it gives the developer a little more pride and gives more users a chance to try out their creation.
 
I have no clue actually...I have stickied a few but never dropped them...

The list does tend to get long at times.Perhaps thats why some are dropped off...
 
It depends on who's watching
I stick some myself
if it gets cluttered i may unstick ones that have had no response in a while
