Default Moto Q Hacks String Collasping Under Its Own Weight

As my string title suggests, I think that the Moto Q Hacks string is collasping under the weight of its own popularity - it seems to have evolved into more of a catch-all, FAQ than a discussion of registry hacks.

I'm not sure what to do about it, but I suspect the community of users would be better off if newcomers spun their questions out into new strings, rather than add more irrelevent postings to the stickied Hacks string...

Thoughts?

i agree w/ you.. maybe it should be cleaned out thoroughly, and after that make it read-only (if possible) and new hacks need to be approved/verified or something.. i am not fully aware of the possibility of the used forum software.

I think the major reason it is the ultimate death is that the newbies aren't used to forums, they just see this site and think it's cool, see the first post, and decide it's where they should reply. Unfortunately, the hacks thread is the first thread... Useful, but self-destructive.

I think hacks/tips/tricks could stand to be in a separate forum.

That is so true. I think everyone should read the FAQs if they've never been in a forum before. I just wish people were smarter....
