Right on, gotta make some noise and get this sorted! It hurts the whole community when someone like Bill feels like their contributions aren't worth the effort.

Thanks Mr. Bill for all your hard work. I often do videos and such for my local club/personal trips and know exactly all the work that goes into it. What you do is mostly selflessness for us all. The reward that you get out of it is seeing everyone else's kind remarks regarding your work.
Thanks again!

Lets hope that this was just a technical glitch (or that someone mistakenly removed it during maintenance).

I really appreciate the time and effort that you put into this Mr Bill!

Make a new one and cross post it across every single forum and bump it daily as if you're a vendor. Even better than a sticky

No biggie, I'll get over it.

More drama here than is required.

The moderators get complaints from site users saying there are too many stickies, so they periodically go through the sections and "unsticky" threads that aren't drawing much response.

This thread in two days, for instance, has had more than half the response of the slide show thread over seven months and most of the recent posts to the slide show thread involved Mr.Bill bumping it.

We had a similar situation last year or the year before, so Mr.Bill knows all he has to do is PM us to find out what's up and to request another sticky. Probably the best time for that would be when/if he updates the slideshow, but we're flexible if folks will just take a few minutes to communicate with us, rather than jumping to conclusions.
