On many forums, there is the ability for mods to pin or sticky a great discussion. I can immediately see a couple examples where this could be useful.
1. There are a lot of "how do I get better at chess?" threads.
2. There are a lot of "why did I get banned?" threads.
It's a bit frustrating to see where the community puts in a lot of effort in and then the threads end up being ephemeral and a couple days later. This could save people a lot of energy and just say "read the sticky" instead.
