Who makes the rules and are they fair?,

I don't know what you're seeing, but the fundraiser item has had responses
in the last 24 hours.
We have rules because rules are the fairest way to decide things. Without
rules all you have is politics.

Mark,
As I have said previously "guidelines not rules". 2-3 days may be
reasonable but I think the fund raiser post deserves longer. The "Exception
[tests] the rule". Perhaps it would be easier to try [a guideline] and
limit pins to a maximum of 5 or less, that is manage the real estate you
There's a pinned item that has had no activity for 3 days.
Like Eric pointed out, there really is no need for pinning items of general
interest. They will rise to the top as interest is generated.
But definitely, when no one has responded to a thread after 3 days, it
should be unpinned.
In other words you will get the "snip" (anagram)

Hi Tony!
You are totally right! restricting people without explaining them and
educating in advance never come to a better result!
Also during the period members were allowed to pin, I noted few items
wrongly pinned!
These could be solved by ADMINS first by sending a short explanation

I had never pinned anything before. Found I could and assumed it was private.
Two other pins occurred then I found out it was public and started a pin exit
plan.
As far as I can see this has being the extent of pins in the last year or more

Ciao tutti
I'm not adverse to someone pinning an announcement for a few days. Like a
plugin release. I thought Mohammad handled his pins fine.
It's the problem of it being overused just because you can pin, which would
quickly prevent it being useful by overwhelm.
There could be be case for a
I see how we star replies. But where do we star a topic?

Just to add that Google Groups doesn't appear to support a separate permission
setting for pinning; as far as I can tell from poking around in the admin
settings, anyone with posting permission can pin posts.

Wow. That *is* useful. How did I miss that? I think it's just that my
expectations were so low ...
Maybe this should be pinned at the top ;-)

That's what "stars" are for. You can star stuff per thread or per reply. I
use this mechanism since my

Apart from his comment about a supposed ego war, I agree with Mark that
the forum would be better off with no pinned items. IMHO, pinned items
should only be important announcements by Jeremy Ruston about TiddlyWiki
itself.
