Should we reduce the # of stickied threads on this forum?
Posted: Fri Feb 22, 2013 1:54 am
Dear PhysicsGRE.com users, there are now 9 stickied threads on the "Prospective Physics Graduate Student Topics" forum. To make it a little easier for you to get to the new topics quickly when you visit, I propose to unsticky the 2008-11 profile threads and create a new stickied thread with links to those four threads.
Please vote on and/or discuss whether you're in favor of this or not. I think this is a good idea but I won't do anything that isn't supported by the majority of the users... I absolutely hate when my favorite websites scramble things around and change layouts unnecessarily!
To clarify... there will be one stickied thread called 2008-2011 Applicant Profiles and Admission Results
In this thread will be just one post that has links to each of the old threads.
2011
2010
2009
2008
The 2008-11 profiles themselves will NOT be combined into one thread.
The current 2013 thread and the most recent 2012 thread will still be stickied by themselves, reachable to you with one click.
I will also consolidate the stickied threads "SEE THIS TOPIC BEFORE POSTING" and "==> Sticky: Some Frequently Asked Questions in This Forum" since they have a similar message.
