Like others, I was confused by this:

> Recently I’ve been reading through a lot of pinned topics. I’ve noticed that all pinned topics get unpinned right after I have read through them. I’m not sure what causes this - but I sure know it’s annoying. I haven’t touched any of the forum shortcuts, so that would not be the case. Thanks for your input! Henrik

One use case of pinned topics are long-running devlogs / diaries. Having the topic unpin itself is rather inconvenient as it will eventually get lost.

Can automatic unpinning of topics be disabled, preferably on a per user basis?
