Had to make new post because I realized only 1 sticky can be active at a time

What is a sticky? I don’t understand the difference

A stickied post is essentially a post that's pinned to the top of everything so it's the first post you see, regardless of whether it's the latest post or not. This means that if you're interested, you'd just have to manually go to Tom's page to see his schedule. The upside would be less patreon notification spam and people who are interested would be checking in the first place. Single posts per event would mean that Tom announces every event that will happen as its own separate post. Upside is that you are alerted even if you're not checking Tom's page and Tom is free to sticky other posts (since he's limited to having only one stickied post). Downside is that it gets spammy, gets lost eventually if events are planned far enough ahead that Tom posts other content, and people who don't use Discord get alerted even if they wouldn't be personally joining it.
