Are they just for site stuff, or what?

What? That cod reminds you of the wall-walking octopuses? [puzzled]

PrisonerCellBlockAitch · 13/12/2007 21:09

IMO MO is the same as Squonka's. but i got rid of them anyway...

Tinker · 13/12/2007 20:56

I got rid of them when mn changed. Mostly because they are referred to as "stickies" - yeuchy shuddery word.

VVVExcitedAboutChristmasQV · 13/12/2007 20:45

If we have stickies for site stuff, will the content of the Newsletters change?

TenLordsaLapin · 13/12/2007 12:55

"ooooOOOhhh" says Cod, "I dno;t like thos estikcies"

SquonkaClaus · 13/12/2007 12:00

Do you remember those sticky toy things that you could re-stickify by rubbing washing up liquid into their plasticcy rubbery bodies... you chucked them at the wall and over a period of one or two minutes they kind of 'walked' down the wall..

anyway, I'm imagining cod as one of those slowly working her way down the wall after being stickied

IMO

(in case you want it...)

stickies should be for site stuff that we need to know about but wouldn't necessarily go looking for.

Things that are 'of interest' will either be bumped quite naturally or can be actively bumped by people who care about the thread.

Site stuff that we are interested in, we will go and find out for ourselves (ie: book club, swaps etc.)

Live chats with rl people should be stickied for the duration of the chat.

and that's what I think.

StarofBethleCam · 13/12/2007 11:54

That's cos they want to keep in with the judiciary

DingDongJeremyOnVile · 13/12/2007 11:52

....and chocolate.

Dont forget the chocolate.

Why the frig have MNHQ sent Cod presents???

WHY??

I might go and start a thread...

..."PROOF THAT MNHQ FAVOUR COD AND ALLOW HER TO TERRORISE THE BOARDS COS SHE'S THEIR FAVOURITE"

oh, yes. That has a nice ring to it.

p.s. anyone who bans stickies from their options may find that their competition entries will have mysteriously disappeared from the hat when it comes to prize-giving time.

JustineMumsnet · 13/12/2007 11:45

Yes I think that's a good plan - stickies for site business only bumping for other important stuff. (Of course what constitutes site business in entirely and completely our decision )

Duly noted. I would say something about discussing this at our next meeting but am sure Lapin will say something cheeky.

Why are you avoiding my eggs?

What have they ever done to you?

No, it's gone, they generally don't leave things there for very long.

I think any thread I start should be stickied, actually.

Is the book club thread still stickied? I vanished that one sharpish and nothing seems to have come back, but I may have hidden all book chat from my version of MN.

TenLordsaLapin · 13/12/2007 09:22

But the Christmas thing still isn't MNHQ, is it... and then we'd get the "well, if that's a sticky why can't the Swaps be stickied" thing (not that Champs would, and it would be a fair point anyway, but you know what I mean)
