Too many sticky threads?

[Kirk]

Deleting any that are earlier then 2025 seems a reasonable idea.

All forums seem to have "stickies" and to the best I can tell they are all just about ignored and people ask/post in the main forum anyway.

Present there is one asking What exactly is a "sprouter"?
And in the pile above is a sticky saying what they are.
So obviously not read.

What a sprouter actually *is*

Having had a bit of a search around I couldn't find a mapping from number of posts on to status so I put a slave on to it.

This seems to be the mapping:

seedling
sprouter 100
rooter 250
tuber 500
cropper 1000
early fruiter 2000
mature fruiter 5400

it all goes a bit mad after that...


edit just noticed this from Kirk

And in the pile above is a sticky saying what they are.

Sorry didn't come across that sticky post.

It doesn't go mad after "mature fruiter" - as if!!
At some point you become a "Garden Guru" and, when you reach 20,000 posts you can ask to have your own designation.
Mods can choose and amend their own designation whilst they are Modding and that stays with them once they stand down.

Sorry, you just can't get the slaves these days.

Just wondering, is there an unlike button?

[Mamzie]

Germinator is the very first designation. I only noticed because I became a seedling on the thread about 'Whats a Sprouter'

Just wondering, is there an unlike button?

Do you mean 'how to unlike a post you have liked'?
If so, just click on 'like ' again

If you mean 'Is there a button to say you don't like a post ' ...then nope.
But you could quote the post and then add a or even a

Unless you�re (I�m) just here to confuse the issue

Thanks Nicos, I have decided to bite my tongue on this one.
