    Shawn, I think you (or the other mods if any) should pin the important POSTS that have discussed some newbie issues from each particular category, so that we can show those threads to newbies (if they dont see it already) and close that thread, which will also release some space for better utilzation (I presume). I am suggesting this with regards to repeated questions on the forum.
    DP has so much nice information it only needs to be clubbed together and pinned in a single post or a few posts for each particular category..
    Anyone second my opinion here? Or lets have a poll on this

    Thats why I suggested that we can club a few of them together to make nice read on a particular topic for eg: Why you get banned on google adsense :D or How to propel your CTR - Jack Burton ;)

    Thanks Amit.
    I agree with both your view as well as Shoemoney's view about DP being an excellent forum with lots of info. But then look at the +ves of pinning the best topics.

    We just need to train new users to search the forums before posting. :)

    It's a good idea in theory, but in practice it will be cumbersome. A better idea would be to pin a single thread, and the first post in that thread could include a categorized listing of the best threads.

    Sounds like a lot of work to me, though, but cheers to you for volunteering to do it. ;)

    good idea but really difficult to implement. And why bother when you have search option.
