Can we pin the VVVVV threads in Marketplace?
    #28031883 - 11/03/22 09:38 PM (1 year, 2 months ago)

ScoutingEagle recently made the same request in the forum recently. I have asked for this in the past with the old threads, and it was well received.

View ScoutingEagle's thread HERE.

When I originally proposed this idea...16 YEARS AGO...the user response was overwhelmingly supportive. It took only about a week for the mods to get with it.

I voted no because all the extra VVV threads are just clutter. I could see making a sticky out of the VVV spores and VVV exotics threads, but the rest are completely unnecessary. Don't like swabs? Don't claim when swabs are available. Don't have trade ratings? Run a giveaway and gain some experience before trading. Need stamps? Go buy some :shrug: the problem with the spore for stamp thread is eventually it will stalemate with two people wanting to trade stamps. Why not have a VVV for left handed cultivators? VVV Central timezone?

I'd vote 'yes' if it were for two main threads but there's no need for the extras

In a way, I see what you mean. However, I disagree that having a few threads pinned amounts to clutter. Currently, there is a free edible culture thread pinned in Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms, created 20 years ago(!) and still going strong. Ultimately, the mods will decide which threads are worthy. But historically, the free cube/exotic print threads have been mainstays of the Marketplace. I'd argue that the swab thread at least should also be included, as swabs are more popular than ever, and seem to be one of the primary ways of swapping spores as of late, especially with varieties that are hard to print (there are many). Considering that not everyone is equipped to work with swabs, I am in agreement that they deserve their own thread. The spores/stamps thread has not yet taken off, but if it were to see engagement, I could more strongly support its inclusion at the top of the Marketplace. Interestingly, I have not seen many syringes being traded. We used to have a free thread for those, too.

Dragonaut, this is seriously a matter for that forum's moderators to  handle, its their work environment, admins can have an opinion but we value the judgement of the local mods.

Site wide, there is consistent pressure to keep the number of pinned thgreads to a minimum.

Ok, I just figured that since the sole moderator for the Marketplace seems uncooperative, prior VVVVV threads have been pinned without hesitation, and it would help keep the threads on track by reducing or eliminating bumping, that this would be a no-brainer. So far, there is far more support for pinning these threads than there is opposition. :shrug:

sub forum or pinned link would be a better solution as having 5 or whatever there is now VVVV pined would be clutter and often are bumped anyway.

In my opinion, if there's enough vvvv going round, a subforum seems tidy, if mods can be found for it.

I voted yes but completely agree with this. I WOULD like a ‘vvvv’ for non-typical cubes, like PE family (APE, PEU, Melmac, Tidal Wave, etc), TAT stuff and crosses though. Boring ol’ GTs can slow down the gravy train sometimes.

I get the idea of wanting a separate thread for atypical cubensis strains, but I think species-specific is narrow enough. For most people, a cube is a cube. And a lot of what I see traded these days are atypical cube strains anyways. So, as of now, I don't support that idea. However, nothing is stopping you from creating your own thread. It might even turn out to be popular. Common brown cube strains like B+ or GT have indeed stalled threads many times in the past.

That never occured to me, maybe after I get a stockpile of swabs and prints I'll do that. That's all I'm ever really looking for personally, even if I already have the variety I like to get different lines of it too.

This current poll now has more votes, and a higher percentage of support than the original poll I made in 2006.
