I know this is a sensitive topic, but there are an awful lot of threads stickied in Chat and Games and I was thinking perhaps the time has come to unsticky some of the rest in peace threads which haven't been posted in since 2011... Obviously it's not an issue having them there, but I'm not sure any of the current active members aside from Sticks, lily, Princess and I were around to even know who Romantic Old Bird is, for example, and there are an awful lot of threads stickied now.

General Chat, even... not Chat and Games.

No disrespect intended at all, it's just that ROB passed away in 2008 and Angie passed away in 2009, it's been a long time since their passing...

I quite liked bobnot's idea having a section for the threads, but I can't find the thread

There should be like a sub forum for members that have passed away

I agree with Zee, a sufficient amount of time has passed.

doesn't really bother me either way, but maybe a section would be nice. For reminiscing and so on, without taking over the general chat section. I'm trying to think of a Big Brother metaphor for the departed but "Evicted Members" doesn't really sound nice :laugh:

A place for the threads of members that have passed away almost like a tibb remembrance garden.

Yeah same here, I think we should do that, it would be awful to just unsticky them and let them disappear :(

Yeah maybe a sub forum would be the best idea, as morbid as it is, there have been quite a few unexpected losses of wonderful forum members and I agree, it would be a shame for the threads to disappear once they've been unstickied, so perhaps a sub forum in General Chat?

Yeah, we've asked James about it, so hopefully that will happen

A seperate section for deceased members would be nice.

And the amount of stickys in general just has to be cut down IMO. C&G is absolutely ridiculous.

The Games that are all stickied may as well be unsticiked

I never check them cause I figure there's nothing new, but if they weren't sticky you'd know there was cause they're at the top of the forum

Plus that's what the Thread Finder thread was supposed to be for anyway

Glad to see this has been implemented, the Remembrance sub forum is just what was needed.
