Are you talking about the sticky icon at the bottom of the front page? In all other forums I've been to that is used to "stick" a thread to the top of the forum page so that it doesn't drop down as other threads are brought up with new postings. I'm assuming that what that icon stands for on this site as well. Some of the threads that don't drop down have a "locked" icon on them and I guess that trumps the sticky icon?? Just a wild guess. :oops:
