    Hi guys,
    I have a question ,that should we make a thread for sharing videos as well like techpowerup screenshot sticky thread.
    Many TPU members have gaming channel ( including me ) , who would like to share their gameplay videos with other TPU members.
    So if everybody agrees a MOD should make that thread , so that everyone can contribute there.

    Fine with me. Start a thread called "Gameplay Video Thread" in the gaming section.
    Keep it clean. Anything that is posted that runs afoul of TPU rules will be an immediate infraction without warning.
    I'll sticky it for now. If it has low usage it will get unstickied.

    Deal?

    Stickies happen usually do to community response. Not trying to make you feel bad, but 2 pages over 2 years doesn't really warrant a sticky.

    I dont like to sticky threads anyways, I believe if the thread is that good, it will always be on the first page or two and thus not hard to find anyways.

    Ok I understand that but he just mentioned we needed a video thread and I had created one a while back but popularity was not its strong suit but just a request if people would use it.

    You can start the new one, or is there a race already started for who gets to do it?

    It really doesnt matter, I was just pointing out that there was one started. The OP is just a starting point. I love watching gaming video's and hoped others at TPU would and keep a thread alive like the Screenshot thread.

    I do believe it would be more active if it was stickied like that screenshot thread but its managements decision.

    Some of those stickies could be removed such as X58 since that tech is on its way out. I could see a stickie reduction and a limitation to stickies.

    You are right Brandon, your thread gets the sticky.

    And I think others will appreciate it. I do agree with sneeky about stickies and I believe that some of the older ones that do not get much attention should be looked at for deletion.

    Stickes are fine, if they get cleaned up, some of those threads were started over 5 years ago...

    If you want to make a thread like this in the games section you are free to do so. A moderator doesn't need to start this thread. If it is popular enough, it will become stickied like any other popular thread.


    Actually, there is already a thread here: http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/showthread.php?t=148809 Everyone can contribute.
