RE: Stickies for beta/released plugins Suggestion for Mods
Though before adding stickies, people should learn how to make only 1 thread about their plugin and keep things organized. As it is now, there are too much scattered threads all about the same plugin. Stickies wouldn't solve a thing and only make the function of stickies useless because there will be too many.

I'm afraid that it has no functionality. For some particular plugins this could be usefull. But for most (if not all) it isn't. If you want to post a beta, why not post it in the dedicated thread (and/or toppost) in the first place? Why making another thread? Beta's of plugins become quickly updated and what one person calls a plugin beta isn't for the other plugin creator. It will simply causes even more confusion.
Reading many thread about plugins you can see this perfectly. A beta is published, some bugs are reported, then a "final" version is published (often in a seperate thread; go figure why). Then some more bugs are reported (between the trivial chitchatting) and another version is published, etc... seperating all this over different threads is nothing more then adding to the confusion and people wouldn't know anymore what the latest release is or what an update is or an old version, etc...

-------------------

And on the subject of searching: unfortunatly stickies wont help much with that either; you still need to search for something. Stickies wont fix the lazyness of people so to speak.
