There was some discussion on this in the Beginners Circle Suggestions Thread. My opinion is that it makes the top of this forum look messy and the thread is really just an old piece of crap sitting around. It's most recently been used for spammers who want to up their post count by copy/pasting the same post over and over because no one cares enough to even check the thread. If the thread was un-stickied, we could either leave it to float around in the BC like a normal post, or we could punt it to the recycle bin where old posts go to die.
Please vote and post your thoughts on this. Thanks.
