    Default Who still does it?

    Go to private messages, list subscriptions? lol. It's just so much of a habit. Sucks balls.

    I don't think I've ever subscribed to a thread? Where does it take you if you do what you asked about, Ant? Later, QD.

    Generally when you post in a thread it auto subscribes it. Thats why USER CP was so convenient, cause it listed all those subscribed threads.

    I don't get how people can use a forum without subscribing?!

    Say you even post in just 5 threads in a day you'll never remember them all to go back to them! Before I realized there was a subscribed thread link I was searching the posts by my user name then searching for all the threads that had replies after mine...idiot haha! The user CP puts everything all on one page and I was still clicking subrscribed threads in the pull down for a couple days after it was fixed.

    Odd, I never changed my subscription settings, and it always auto subscribes to threads I post in. Oh well...

    In case you didn't know, click Quick Links then Edit Options and under Messaging & Notification is the Default Thread Subscription Mode pulldown...click no email notification and every thread you reply in will be listed in the UserCP and Subscribed Thread links.

    So you search every single forum to find flags? That might work fine for those that don't actually venture outside the whoreslounge or just one forum.

    I am able to remember where I've posted. I see the beside a thread and I check it to see what's up. I've never gone into any USER CP section to change or alter the way I read/see/receive threads. I've never had subscriptions. Never had to turn them off. And never received E-mails, lolol.

    Later, QD.

    Agreed, it saves a lot of time, especially if you're on multiple forums.
    I wouldn't be able to live without either.

    Personally, I know the sections I post in. My memory bank is like a black hole. The things I remember, minute or great, is incredible. Later, QD.

    Correction, there's only a handful of sections you're capable of adding knowledgeable and credible information too

    Correction, care to post in. lol

    I actually have a little knowledge in a variety of topics, they just don't interest me so I don't care to talk about it.
