    Sansui Forum change

    In order to clean up the first page of the forum, and upon advice of some other moderators, I have merged many of the stickies that are full of the typical stuff we all see frequently. It does make that thread huge, and harder to navigate, but many times nobody goes there to find answers anyway...
