PERPETUAL ANNOUNCEMENT THREADS - WHY?
I noticed that there are a couple of "announcements" that always stay at the top of the thread list, even though two of the three have not had a post made since April 2 or 3 (It's June 12th today). They are not of general and perpetual interest, yet they remain at the top.
What gives?

Newbie user error in selecting a category.
Maybe a super moderator could delete them or re-categorize them?
Announcement category should be reserved for moderators or senior level members, IMHO.
+1 on that.
I was (and still consider myself) one of those forum newbies with one of my posts. The lack of a button to "un announce" those posts seems like a software oversight.
I second that. I clicked on the announce button naively thinking maybe it was part of posting a new thread.
The next thread I started I didn't click it and I still created an announcement ;(
I even asked a mod to remove the threads and nothing happened. Oh well.
We are working on this.
Excellent - best to do it now rather than after this board is full of new members . . .
Thanks.
Alright guys, we set "announce" to moderator only, and removed it from all but one post.
