Opinions on the new sticky layout

[cin]

Ok peoples, i know there is people on this forum that do use the guides and
tutorials sticky a lot. not only to find the info on questions that need to be
answered, but also on finding the right guides to link people to (that are
normally either too lazy or new on this forum )

i see that there are at least 2 or 3 new guides written every week. off course
not every guide is sticky-worthy and some guides are simple copies or shortened
versions of existing guides, but still i see our guides n tuts sticky growing.
To keep the size down, i would like to experiment a bit. By this i mean making
a different post with links for every single chapter in the guides n tuts section.
At this moment, we already do that for characters and skills.

I think that this might help not only cleaning the big sticky up, but also to find
the right guides for you wouldnt have to scroll that much anymore

Just like to hear some opinions and/or other suggestions before i try this out

thnx.

I, personally, think it's a great idea. Would easily solve the big sticky problem and eliminate the repetitive strain injury occuring in my scrolling index finger.

Cin, baby, you know that I you. And exactly with that reason, I'm going to poop on your party, and break the chain of the future yes-men posts that are sure to come, and ask you why this is necessary? Seems like an awful lot of work, just to make a few people even more lazy?

well its not that much of work. i just need about 15 new posts and copy paste
the links in the sticky chapters in those new posts. then i post links to those
new posts in the sticky instead oO

Well, then I don't get why you don't just go ahead and do it? You don't need our approval, you know? Hehe.

So does that mean every Guide that's written, you're going to throw a link to that section of the Sticky?

well..
every new guide will be linked in the proper section of the sticky yes. so if
its a pk2 edit guide, it will go to Sticky -> Pk2 edit, and will be linked in the
post with pk2 editing guides.

and i know i dont NEED your approval, but you guys use the guides n tuts
more than i do, so it needs to fit you guys, not me.

Well, what I mean is, sometimes, we see useless Guides - and you know I'm not meaning to flame any of the people who made the Guides, Cin, but I think you know what I'm talking about. Just Guides that have people who typ l1k d1s homie-g u kno wut i mean? They're unorganized, cluttered, hard to read and understand, and to top it all off, are pretty much common sense.
Just wondering if those kinds of Guides would go in the Stickies? Or would it be what would normally go in the current Stickies, just divided into the new subdivisions?

And of course, we might use this more than you, but whatever you think would be the best thing to do for us. After all, you're a Mod, and sometimes, you just gotta go with what you think. If YOU think that this would be a good decision, I think you should just go for it - after all, isn't that a little bit of the reason why you were even chosen to be a Mod in the first place? You showed that you were responsible, and could be trusted to make good decision on BEHALF of the rest of the Forum.


But, really, still, I'm still very heartbroken that you ran off with Satman.

[Soulhaitetsu]

Hmm, well Cin, if you do go ahead with this "update" of sorts...
I just want to say "Thank you," for keeping the forum members in mind; how very thoughtful.

Kudos to you, sir... or madam...

*shrug*

I'm gon' love you better

but yea.. ill see what i will do. just want some more opinions on it.

[Itonami]

Well, for all the Legend I update guides.. make a sticky for all of those links?
And for Characters and Skills, put all those guides together.
Money and Jobbing guides sticky

Narrow it down to little categories and post relevant links to the certain guides, possibly?

May have already been suggested. I are teh sleepy and blindddd.

Uh oh. I know I should be the last person saying this, but let's try to get this thread back on-topic, alright? Sorry if I derailed it a little.

Anybody else have any thoughts for Cin?

[Grim]

Hmm, i think it will clean up our sticky mess.

I told you guys not to play with yourselfs while making guides.. -.-

[cin]

Ok im done with that. layout can be changed and i back-upped the old post.

let me know if something needs to be changed.

edIt BAAAAH gonna change it

just found out how to link to posts not topics -_-

no comment yet xP

[fena]

Woah. Hold on, hoss. That's alot of locked threads. Never thought I'd see the day that a Mod would lock his own thread, with no replies in them.

OT: Actually, I like it. That is, I'll like it as soon as the threads get pushed to the back of the Forum, haha. Guess that'll happen in time, though.
Have you considered putting the name of the author after the Guide?

As in Guild Guide by _wolf_, instead of just Guild Guide?

Once again, love what you're doing for these forums, babe.

[cin]

dammit fena u iz too quick

im gonna delete all my locked ones again XD

But now fena won't be so quick because fena hafta go.
