Even though it's a Druff thread, and stickied, I'm gonna say this thread isn't truly official. It only uses two asterisks. Also, it doesn't have the word official. Nice effort though.

Despite the fact i was once an officially appointed official in an official club; officially, I have no official position on official threads.

Hey Steve-O, fancy seeing you here in my official thread about official threads. I was just going to remark on the officialness of your thread:

OFFICIAL Ask Steve-O questions about poker books thread

You forgot the asterisks, bro. Rookie mistake. I see that you tried to compensate for this by typing OFFICIAL in all-caps. Many people believe that this enhances the officialness of a thread, but that's a common misconception. Referring to yourself in the 3rd person does lend some authority to your thread, but it's not enough to make up for the other egregious errors.

Verdict: not official.

I'm a non-conformist, so my thread is in fact O-F-F-I-C-I-A-L

Okay. Your thread can be "O-F-F-I-C-I-A-L" if you like. But if you want it to be official, you'll have to conform to official standards.

*Official WD-40 Appreciation Thread*

Obviously not as important as many other "Official" threads so I'll only give it 1 asterisks.

Despite my facetious remarks earlier about "officialness", there is no such sliding scale. It is a black and white dichotomy. Your thread is either official, or it isn't. If you want to convey that your thread is less important than other threads, excluding the word "official" from the title would be a good starting point. Your misuse of asterisks is just an embarrassing faux-pas.

Verdict: NOT official.
