 | View Full Version : Important: ??? Vortech 07-14-2002, 05:52 PM http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?threadid=59602 http://www.webhostingtalk.com/forumdisplay.php?forumid=27 How do you get that Important: post at the top. Is this a new ad thing? RRolfe 07-14-2002, 05:58 PM its a new thing that Marsh put into effect a few days ago. I think it is like $50/week for a sticky thread like that. Vortech 07-14-2002, 06:05 PM Thanks.. :) i sent them an email just now about it as well.. The Prohacker 07-14-2002, 10:03 PM They should really change the text from Important to something else.. Maybe Sticky :D Vortech 07-14-2002, 10:17 PM Or even AD would be better.. :) a:\ 07-15-2002, 06:10 PM Originally posted by The Prohacker They should really change the text from Important to something else..

Now I know. mrzippy 07-25-2002, 03:11 PM I've inquired about this several times, but have never received a response. Maybe they're not doing this anymore? Chicken 07-26-2002, 02:13 AM Possibly the person who handles this is on vacation, or the spots are filled so it is taking time to reply. I don't rightly know, just throwing out some other possible reasons. mrzippy 07-26-2002, 03:00 AM I guess I just expected more of a response (any response) to my enquiry about advertising. They must be doing pretty good if they couldn't be bothered to even respond with a "we're busy now and will email you later" reply. Oh well. Ahmad 07-27-2002, 07:58 AM If they change it to Sponsor, it will take effect on all sticky threads on all forums. Like the acronyms thread in the lounge.

That can always be fixed, I'm sure there is already a hack for it... Infact, I think I remember one that does this... I might need a little work to make it perfect for here but would be easy enough... chrisb 07-27-2002, 11:33 PM Originally posted by The Prohacker They should really change the text from Important to something else.. Maybe Sticky :D No, they should change it to say "Stupid". It really is not a good idea unless you own the forum and are money-hungry. I thought Robert assured us that he'd keep the forum "just like it was". The Prohacker 07-27-2002, 11:59 PM Originally posted by chrisb No, they should change it to say "Stupid". It really is not a good idea unless you own the forum and are money-hungry. I thought Robert assured us that he'd keep the forum "just like it was". Its his forum, and he can run it how he wants... So far, he's done a good job... We are on seperate servers, running with a decent uptime... If the board got some tweaks here and there on how its run and managed, it would help alot, but hey, its his... I don't really care about the sticky threads, as long as he draws the line there... No closing posts for money and making them sticky etc... chrisb 07-28-2002, 02:22 AM Well, at leasty I got my "Important: sticky free. :) |
