change the order of "sticky" threads

[Lynne]

Stickies are posted in no particular order out of the database. You can see the stickids define around line 772 in forumdisplay.php. There is a hook at forumdisplay_query_threadid that I suppose you could use to put them in a different order before they get merged with the $ids variable and used in the $threads query.

Have you looked for a modification that may allow you to put them in order? I'm not sure if there is one, but thought you might want to look. Otherwise, you may want to write your own mod for it.
