not sure if it's our custom skin, but I see at discussion boards I can use a pin icon at the right handside to pin a board to the top, but at topics list inside a board there's no such pin icon but instead a pin/unpin button under the title of the topic. I'd prefer the pin icon for both such actions for consistency

We have changed this in new skin, so this is consistent now. I'm not sure if there is anything else here to address ?

One issue may be that pin/unpin is grouped with other admin actions, but a separated pinned symbol is shown when items are pinned

there are two paths one could take in design

a. could make the pin flag clickable by admins to unpin (if it's not already)

b. could remove pin/unpin from admin actions ui group and instead make the pin flag icon a toggle button showing/toggling unpinned/pinned state. For normal users only pinned state would be shown (no unpinned icon) and they wouldn't be able to click the pin to unpin it
