what thread has over 4500 views and 450 posts, but still isn't stickied?


the "Ye Olde D&D Limerick Thread Update: 4e" thread.

this really ought to be fixed

Sorry, elibus, but the General Discussion forum is already over-stickied. I love the thread, but it's for humor, not reference, so I don't think it's going to be sticked.

I dunno. The D&D forum boards have the purpose to entertain D&D fans, and the limerick seens to be doing that a sight better than some of the other stickied threads...

But hey, I figure asking can't hurt.

Warweaver's "Sorry WotC" thread?

Nah, that's the answer to "What thread has more than 37,000 views and 2,000 posts, but still isn't stickied?" :P

The other stickied threads are here for informational purposes, not entertainment.

Normally, threads are sorted by the date of the most recent post (earliest at the top). Stickied threads "stick" to the top of the page, regardless of when the last post was.

I started the thread (actually, I ripped the idea off of one in Prev Ed ;)) and I do not think it should be stickied. As wrecan has stated, stickied threads should serve the community by providing information. The Limerick thread - while immensely fun and fairly popular - is really just for fun. My suggestion (and this is something I do myself) is that, if you are concerned about keeping the thread alive and on the first page, post in it. Frequently. :D

Agreed. I have ceased posting in it though. :P No one likes my lines apparently

I love the thread. I just think people don't pay proper attention to the sexual innuendo that is essential to any good limerick.

It would be nice to have more that followed that tradition. I just think that sometime's it's difficult to come up with smexy lines where D&D is concerned. I'll make an effort to make mine a bit hawter. ;) Hopefully some of our better artists will do the same.

Isn't sexual innuendo against the CoC?

Nope. Not in and of itself, anyway.
