Bytes sticky section / Maybe not what you think. - Mr. Robot - Nov 12, 2018
Rather than say have the suggestion of paying for stickies with bytes - how about an entire subforum that's only threads paid for with bytes.
That way I can go to it and see just that section. On this note, maybe have a subforum with just paid stickies in general without allowing those paid with bytes to be in other places on HF.

I will like to see a similar concept being implemented where instead of Buying stickies, users will have to pay some Bytes to Bump their thread up. And maybe set a flood control of one day to prevent constant bumping.
Having an entire sub-forum that's only for threads paid for with bytes, sounds a bit lame in my opinion.

The whole forum economy could work on bytes imho. (sticky, stickers, bumps, etc..)
But you should be able also to buy them directly from the forum.
If you do that you give to bytes a certain value, and you can implement them in every trade around the forum.
Results? No more BTC/PP scams... all happy.

Maybe rather a page(like an Extra addition to HF) that would consist of all paid sticky threads. Sounds better than making a new forum and redirecting everything there.

I think it sounds like a decent idea!

I get what you are saying, not quite sure how I feel about it though...

None of these are ideas I would implement.

What about a forum dedicated to products/services that are only sold for Bytes and in that specific forum the stickies can only be paid for with Bytes?

The whole point of buying a sticky in a specific section is getting targeted traffic.
