What is the difference between a popular topic and one that.....isn't?

A "popular" topic has ten(?) or more post while an "unpopular" topic does not.

Ah, okay thanks.

Edit: What is an "active topic"? There is an option at the top of the page that read "view active topics". What does this mean?

Active topics are topics that have had new posts the past couple days.

Okay, then what is a "sticky topic"?

It's a topic that has permanently been "stuck" at the top of a forum so that users can see it at any time. Typically it's got information that's used often, such as the FAQ in the SWBF2 Modding forum.

Oh, right. I would see why you would want the FAQ at the top. It really helps!
