Some of them have got to go

Deleted Threads -- those threads got deleted a year ago
Where can I buy baby furniture -- uh, does this really qualify for a sticky?
FREE BOOK EXCHANGE - CANCELLED -- it's cancelled
Let Foreign Nationals Register -- it's been 2 years. try something else.

Hot women, sticky threads. Hey, what's not to like about that?


Oh, I see... Well, once a sticky, ever stuck. So it seems.

Well, the baby furniture thread is about more than just furniture- it's difficult for some people to get this kind of information, especially if they aren't good at reading Hangul. I think if this one gets deleted, it will come again in the future. Personally, I refer back to it from time to time. Oh well~ if it gets deleted, there's always the search function. ^~

I think we need to make a sticky~ one about dating Korean girls, 'cuz that one comes up repeatedly. Actually, it should be in the FAQ section, like how there are many subdivisions under a broad category. lol~

Actually, there are some stickys that should be deleted, due to old or outdated information, which could possibly be harmful. Still, I have no idea who has enough time to figure out which ones should be Wink

I'll bring this up to the other mods and see if there is something we can do.

Actually the book exchange is on hiatus as we have a lead on a new location and hope to get it running again very soon.

Does anyone ever even check out the musicians sticky? I suggested they put some events calendar on here, so bands don't need to pester people advertising shows in the general discussion boards.

I never look at stickies on any message board. My eyes automatically move past them. Same with things written in on signs or something that are in big or bright letters. I don't even notice.

That said, I do think a baby furniture thread shouldn't qualify as a sticky, and Periwinkle is right about the gf thread. Definitely a good idea.

I believe the question did come up about a events calander of some sort, but we haven't gotten an answer yet.

Especially since it turns out that the problem is not the government, just lazy companies that don't download the bloody software that recognizes the numbers (found that out later). You can't protest laziness.

That's good, as I couldn't be bothered anyway.

actuallyk the real problem is that the government didn't include foreigners in the original software and have made it a optional add-on rather than a required upgrade.

I propose a Sticky Forum. That would be like Christmas in September.
