Note
Only the online verb has this form. Sticky here means pinning a thread above the rest, and it is transitive: it takes an object (she stickied the rules) or appears in the passive (the post was stickied). The final y becomes i before -ed, as in carried. The adjective sticky, whether gluey, awkward or humid, has no past tense, so stickied always points to pinning.
