What does "New posts Popular" mean?
Is it when a topic reaches a certin post limit?

Exactly

That's it exactly. When a thread reaches a certain size, it is marked as popular. The current popular size setting for this board is 25 posts. I don't think we actually have any threads that have gone up to 25 posts.

Same thing, but what is "Sticky"

Ooh! Ooh! Pick me! Pick me!

Sticky is when a topic is set to stay at the top of the topic list at all times, no matter how old it gets and how many posts are made in other topics.

Thanks but what do you have to do to make a topic sticky?

A board moderator or administrator has the option to make a topic sticky. The option shows up when you are creating a new thread, or editing the first post in a thread.
