New feature
I just added a new option to the forum. Now when you subscibe to a thread the script will mark the thread as "Subscribed:" and stick it at the top of the list for you. This way you can instantly see the threads that you have subscribed to without having to scroll down the pages to find it.

Re: New feature
 I just posted a thread asking about this, I mean exactly at the same time as you did this one!
Is there a way to turn it off in CP?

Re: New feature
Hi.
Is there a way to make the tag a bit more inconspicuous? A symbol would be much preferable to altering the thread title. As it is now, it's very distracting.
Your work is much appreciated, as always.

Re: New feature
More:
I find it pointless to make subscribed threads sticky. It does not good to me to have them up there if there are no new posts.

Re: New feature
Wow. To my knowlege, I have NEVER "subscribed" to a thread. All of a sudden I have 229 subscribed threads - every thread I've responded to in the last year or two by my count. 
How do I DELETE all "subscriptions"?

Check the Notification checkbox.
Scroll down to the Selected Threads popup. Select "Delete Subscription" Press "Go". Repeat as desired. |

I had a similar experience today, but found how to unsubscribe in mass. I didn't receive any emails about those threads.
Oddly, the other day I was looking for a link to subscribe to a specific thread, but couldn't find one. I seem to remember there used to be a "subscribe to this thread" link or button somewhere.

Re: New feature
Parker, thanks for ongoing efforts to improve HTF, but I don't care for this.
* It's redundant with the check mark.
* Eventually my screen with be permanently filled with dead, but subscribed, threads and I will no longer see new threads.
* It makes it harder to read the titles, as they all begin with "Subscribed: "
* I don't want to actively manage my discussions by being forced to manually unsubscribe when I get bored. I like just watching them fall off as posting ceased.

Re: New feature
I just deleted all subscriptions and set my defaults to "Do Not Subscribe", so this probably won't have any more effect on me. I just kind of figure that I shouldn't have had to.
Jay's Movie Blog - A movie-viewing diary.
Transplanted Life: Sci-fi soap opera about a man placed in a new body, updated two or three times a week.
Trading Post Inn - Another gender-bending soap, with different collaborators writing different points of view.
"What? Since when was this an energy ball movie?" - Overheard during a screening of Takashi Miike's Dead Or Alive
"What the hell religion are you people?" - Overheard during the Captain Marvel serial at SF/29
"If I feel even one bullet hit me, I will rip your lungs out through your nostrils!" - Ron Silver as himself, "Heat Vision And Jack"

I agree completely with Dave's reasons for not liking this new feature. I do appreciate your efforts in continually trying to improve the functionality and look of HTF, Parker, but in this case I do not care for the change.
Is there a way we can have the option to disable this feature on our individual accounts?
