We cannot know what each member needs in an immediate situation. It's not clear to me why, for instance, knowing how to delete your account is more important information than knowing how to report a post. Or contact a member of the community support team. Or how to edit the post you just made to leave out some embarrassing information you didn't mean to include...
In other words, that's why we have a Help / FAQ section to begin with. Each person's needs are different in different situations, and we can't know what those are and put a sticky for each thing in the forum -- the forum would be made up of nothing except stickies on the first page.
Which is sort of what the Help / FAQ section is -- a bunch of questions (stickies) trying to lead you to the information that's important to you as quickly as possible.
In fact, we have a sticky notice at the top of every page in this forum, and it's clear that very few members even bother reading that or providing the minimal, basic information we request when someone has a technical issue or concern with the forums. So I don't think more stickies, larger stickies, etc. are the answer.
It has always been a problem and always will be a problem because some people just can't see these options, for whatever reasons, and read the info provided.
