Description

When I, faviouz, post in the /me thread, which is a sticky thread, the Stick Thread checkbox in the quick reply isn't checked by default, thus leading the thread being un-sticked. Other staff members do not seem to be having this issue. And the weird thing is that this only happens with the /me thread, it works fine in any other thread within the Testing forum. I tried a different forum as well and there were no issues. Someone else had the same issue on their forum with a specific thread, but I could not reproduce this on my own local copy of MyBB.

Without some clearer details, we can't fix this.

Looking at the code, it seems almost impossible. The fact that the sticky box appears makes it even less believable, as if it appears it should be checked (as long as the thread is stickied). The only explanation I can offer is a browser problem for whatever strange reason - next time it appears, inspect the element and see if there is anything odd about it.

Same thing happened to Tom Loveric when he was staff, same thread I believe, and I believe it's happened to me once or twice, same thread too probably. Totally weird.

I know, I've seen it happen too but there's no way of reproducing it. It's literally almost as if it 'forgets' the thread is stickied. I thought it may be a javascript problem, but all it does is serialize the form and send it via AJAX.

I'm not really sure how else I can explain this. I can normally reply to all threads on all forums without un-sticking the thread, except the /me thread. Even the other few sticky threads in the Testing forum work fine, it's just that one thread. And since the Stick Thread checkbox isn't checked by default in the /me thread, the thread is un-sticked. That's it, really.

This happened to Jammerx2 as well, when he was still in the 3 month probation period I believe. I'm still in the 3 month probation and most likely so was Tom Loveric. Maybe someone could create a test account with those permissions and try it?
