From the patch Readme: " IMPORTANT: Please also read the new “Interface Addendum” and the “Pilot Management Addendum” which have been added to your Documentation shortcut sub-folder and can also be found in your /Manuals installation sub-directory. These two documents contain very important information on improvements and changes in these areas."

IMHO, having a large number of "stickied" threads is the best way of drowning those that are really important.

It would be better if people tried using the search function before asking. I made a little experiment - In the main forum, I typed "exclamation" in the search box. It turned up four other threads (apart from this one) that answered this particular question ...

that´s a problem of all forums usually and I´m sure I´ve too asked things that have been answered before... that´s why this forum is so great, you still get (mostly) good answers.

Good Idea Bill, FWIW I thought the list of must read threads in the WITP forum was an outstanding resource for the game.

I'd agree with this. The problem with searching a forum -- not just here, but any forum -- is that all too often a logical search string doesn't find what you need. Just as an example, if you're looking for a particular old post, you might have to remember whether the post said "PH" or "Pearl Harbor," and then you'll naturally have to wade through a few hundred posts before deciding you guessed the wrong one.

(Okay, I know that's not a likely search term; it's just the example!)
