I hold responsible for this action. I had moved 3 stickies to the Archives:
Map Making Frequently Asked Questions
SCUMS Map Making FAQ
Trigger Demo Maps
As you know. BF gets a lot of members through people browsing through www.google.com
So, for example, lets say a person is seaching for help on making a bound. A link in google might direct them to the Sticky. The person reads it the tutorial on bound making and now can make bounds.
Notices I didn't say anything about newcomers posting? I want to encourage posting more on these forums. If people want help with map making, they will have to create a thread asking for help instead of not posting and just looking up the solution in a sticky.

Addition:
Now that I think about it. I think google can still direct them to the sticky threads regardless if it's in the Archive or not. I'm going to do something about this soon. I gave you the links to those threads above. Use them or save the text and links before I do something about it.

What's the use of that? My goal is to not have those threads be open to the public. I'm trying to encourage posting, not reading without posting.

Normal users can't see the archives, mate.

Because he scares me.
They may not be able to see the archives, but maybe they can see the threads once they search it.
