OMG... I was just thinking about this today to solve a private forum issue with view only your threads permission. I was going to create a custom announcement for it... now I can use this. Super thanks @Xon.
Hi @Xon
I recall this working for me, but I just noticed it stopped working.
Using a normal user account, it can access the stickied thread, but it doesn't appear on the forum listing, and there's no errors. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling as well to no avail.

I have this on two forums, both with most of the same add-ons, one site I can see that there are posts (stickies) in a forum, the other says 'Private' and there is no way to click it.
Knowing the URL to the forum, if I go there and I can see the sticky threads, but from the main page the forum says 'Private'

I may have misspoke. Both sites do say Private, . Only one of the site's removes the link from the forum's name to go into the forum.
From within the node permissions, with 'View sticky threads' toggled 'YES' ..... toggling the 'View threads by others' to 'No' removes the link. 'Yes' includes it.
This is the opposite of the other site where it works as expected.
