Someone has sent in a suggestion to make the Ambrosia finishing thread a "sticky thread" similar to the existing 2 sticky threads at the top of the text forum. Good suggestion.

However, longterm this will not be very viable as we could end up with 20 sticky threads. I can make one or more subforums where we can store useful tips. Further, I could keep the subforums open to anyone or limited to just the moderators. If it was limited it would allow Steve or myself to store tips down there, but that puts a lot of the maintenance on our shoulders.

I would rather have it be open to all, and we could put the popular tips at the top of the subforum as sticky threads until we exhaust that route. Comments or suggestions on the overall proposal? Comments on the Ambrosia finishing topic?
