Here's the deal, at this point they just don't exist on this board. The topics that look like sticky posts are actually posts that have had the date spoofed (by Hanford) as a future date so that they stay on top. In addition, those topics have to be locked because any response to it would put in a legitimate date which would soon unseat it from the top. I would LOVE to have sticky posts, unfortunately it would require some possibly extensive coding and time from Hanford which means it probably won't happen anytime soon. In the meantime be judicious in using the search engine and when you find one of those key threads (if still relevant), maybe give it a bump. Additionally, post the link here (in this very thread) along with the name of the topic. Better yet, post it using proper url hyperlinking BB code so the link ends up looking like this: I need a list for a fully stocked bar (Tiki and the Usual) The "Starter" Home Bar and Rum Bar-warming gifts outfitting a home bar If you don't know how to do the url hyperlinking bb code, just hit the edit button to see how the coding looks, or visit the TC Help page here: http://www.tikicentral.com/faq.php#bbcode Maybe if we can come up with enough of these "key" threads I can do something with them in the form of a "directory". Actually a TC Directory Forum is something that is already partially in the works but this one is not dependent on Hanford's time but on my own time.
