Renting Stickies?

i was thinking that a good way for NS to make some money would be to have  a limited number stickies that members could pay some sort of weekly rate for their threads. This would probably be a pretty useful thing to have, particuraly in the "buy/sell/trade" forum for kids with bigger sales, or just want to get rid of their stuff faster.

Are you saying that if you want your thread to be a sticky you need to pay for it????

sorry ill try to explain what im saying better

basically its paying to have your thread stickied, i know some threads get stickied on their own, but like i said before it might be useful for people trying to get more attention for their sales etc.

just an idea

i can see pros and cons

If your really trying to sell something it would help and all
but
it would get abused i believe

Just pay a homeless person to sit at your computer and bump the thread every 15 minutes. Problem solved.

That could cause real important stickies to get overlooked and there would be too many.
