Resource group is moving back to original node even though stickiness is set in a RHEL 6 or 7 High Availability cluster with pacemaker

Issue

If a resource is moved to the other node (pcs resource move or failing the node) then once it's node is back up it will move back despite the fact that stickiness=100 is set and there are no location constraints that would out weigh that forcing it to move back.
I've set stickiness on a group but it still relocates back to its original node when it rejoins.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6 or 7 with the High Availability Add On
pacemaker
A resource or group with the meta option stickiness set above 0, or above the score of a corresponding location constraint
- That resource does not also have resource-stickiness set, the cluster property default-resource-stickiness is at the default value of 0, and there is no resource default resource-stickiness set
