Thank you, tfp! I believe you've hit on a solution to our sticky congestion. I will defer to JBI, but I think you have a Gold Metal Winner here.

by just brew it!
Looks pretty good to me... having an "index thread" like this seems like a reasonable thing to do to try and keep things more organized.

Stickied.

We should discuss which of the other stickies should be un-stickied. (Maybe all of them?)

I would think all of them? If a thread is active/very active it will be right under the index thread anyways most of the time. If a thread isn't active (two of the stickies haven't had a post in over a year) no need to push down active threads as there should be a link in the index for threads that contain important info.

It has been a while since I spent money and time folding, but I do still have the TRfolding.org domain pointing to this forum, at least until April 2019. Since I had to renew some domain name registrations today, I was reminded of that. It's easier to remember and type trfolding.org than to click a few links to get where you were going anyway, especially on the small machines people are using these days where typing becomes a process of hoping it doesn't miscorrect you or your fingers are too big to hit the appropriate keys. I thought I did this here before, but apparently not.

FYI
