unsticky some of the threads

the political cartoons thread and the Ukraine discussion thread are wildly popular already, and the Kellies ended more than a month ago. and the Debate Me thread is a resounding failure

it's easy to miss the feedback thread buried in a half-dozen other stickies

Done.

Turning off avatars really helps with preventing making quick judgements about posters. I turned them off years ago when I realized that I would see someone's avatar, gang tag or whatever and immediately try to attack what they were saying in my mind before I even finished the post. Turn them off in D&D, a side note is that I never noticed how distracting avatars are before I turned them off.

Also, global events have conspired to make this feedback thread empty. I have to once again recommend just letting this one go on for a week.

I don't need to turn off avatars, I've been able read posts for what they are instead of the poster for years, but I also think that's why there's so many goons outside d&d who hate this forum. They refuse to give their posting enemies any ground to stand on and our debate club gives them some ground for the sake of good debate. It's not really something d&d can fully control, it's a goon culture issue.

As for d&d itself, the only real feedback I can give is one I've been giving for some years now: We need a different method in picking mods. The traditional method isn't working anymore, we keep getting these gently caress-ups who get themselves demodded. Part of the problem is also the admins want more admins and they've shown they're willing to speedrun d&d mods into admin positions, but bad admins wouldn't get there in the first place if we had a better way to promote mods.
