The more I think about this, the more I think maybe it might be a good thing.
I agree there wouldn't likely be much topic turnover, but having a place to dump class knowledge would be inarguably positive for new players, or even old players trying a new class, a la the super awesome Bard Kiting thread. Even If it was just a collection of how-to's and little discussion, it would prevent the ever present FoTM questions on the server chat page.
I suppose you could argue that this might stagnate every other forum, but I say it beats the twice a month 'What's good <class> gear?' thread, and the subsequent 17 nerd-raged 'Do a %&*ing search, noob' posts. I myself am sad that I can't seem to find that thread when I want it. A sticky post in each class forum of the typical gear choices (for that class) would be pretty sweet.
So would a basic overview of 'L2P'. I met a bard the other day who proclaimed that twisting was too much work and letting 'Whistling Warsong' roll on uninterrupted while he melee'd was contribution enough.
