    Default Random question thread

    So I was thinking the site could use a sticky thread designated for quick, one reply questions. what I mean by this is, you have a question, but think its too insignificant for its own thread, but you don't know who to send a pm to. For example: does braided nylon fishing line stretch? Answer: No. I think little questions like this could use a thread for themselves. What do you think? Good idea bad idea?

    The definition of what you want to do kind of is the opposite of what a sticky is intended for.

    I was just trying to economize, Crash. In these hard times, I didn't want to waste any bandwidth.

    Oh I understand. He may not see it though. I think it may be kind of like crossing the border into the United States - he has issues with crossing the border into General Chat too.

    Okay, well, maybe not a sticky, but something. I dunno. Maybe its just me, but I seem to always have little questions like this, and thought maybe there should be a place for them.

    Just pick the section that the question fits in best, and ask away. If you aren't sure which section - use General.

    100% correct. If something flies past your head, and you don't know if it was a bird, or a bat......it was, by definition, a UFO.

    I don't think he asked for critiques. He just wanted a simple yes or no.

    @Crash - Can we ask Chris for a stun button?
