I kinda feel the same way. After looking at several other states forums our sticky threads are many. Several sites don't have any. Yes we need one for our archives and such. If it relates to crappie fishing in Oklahoma and there is interest it will stay alive on the board, if not it will just die. I think we are making it to complicated. After talking with Craig (Reaper) I feel that a tournament sticky should be made for our trail each year and afterwards it should be put into the archives. As far as a challenge as the Wister Challenge the 22nd should be allowed to stay active on the forum for all to see. If things like this are hidden there will be no interest or entries. Example is the Mid West Trail on Oologah only 3 comments in a week and it will die and be off the main page in a week..heck I am not a moderator, and I know they have rules to go by. No complaints from me I just think we are maybe trying a little to hard. Last thing you will hear me say on the subject.....Ranger
