How to ignore topics?
DavidAlfa:
Well, I really am. My holes are still intact, but getting forced anyways :-DD
I repeat, I get suscribed to every-single-damn-existing-thread I enter on.
Why? I never ticked any option in the profile for that.
In fact I just discovered the administration settings to ignore the threads.
But it's not really working?
If I consider the thread intereseting, I'll suscribe to it by myself.
Otherwise, I'm getting condemmned always see the same 41 pages-and-growing thread where some old grunt are discussing about some silly thing which became completely offtopic of the main question.
And these half million threads where someone connects a transistor wrong and here we go again with 185786 pages non-stop discussion.
It's OK, no problem with that -this is a forum, right?- BUT please, may I not see it again!? Never? |O :-DD
pcprogrammer:
And now you are hooked on this one :-DD

It also (the forum), seems to be missing a subscribe to thread. When you come across an interesting thread, but the only way seems to be to put a post in it (to subscribe to it).
If the thread is something, that a person lacks any knowledge in, e.g. SPAM BOT gibberish (or whatever it is, possibly human?), creating a significantly nonsense thread, with very silly nonsensical questions (there is, arguably a current thread, similar to that, about storing electrolytic capacitors). It would be nice to be able to subscribe to it, without being forced to post in the crazy thread.
But also, being able to UNSUBSCRIBE from such threads, would also be very useful.
I suppose it is limits of the forum software system and its capabilities.

What has worked for me is to find my posts in the thread and delete them. Then I am no longer subscribed to that thread. Of course that kinda damages the thread, and it shouldn't be necessary to do it that way, but I've found nothing else that works. May do that here too, depending.

For the record... :-DD :-DD
