Ignoring threads
I'd like to ask if this forum supports the option to ignore some threads or subcategories, so that they don't appear in "View new posts".
For example I am not interested in world politics and I see daily many such posts in the subforum intended for these discussions.
Please don't get me wrong. I don't intend to insult the forum topics or those who are interested in politics. It's just that not everybody shares the same interests and would require some individual convenience

Maybe if you were actually an active member here you'd know this has been discussed before.

Re: Ignoring threads
So? Just means the onus is on YOU to catch up.
You could also try the bloody search function.
Either way, Dumb Novels is back up, so you can run back and preeq-wank yourself silly over there again.

Re: Ignoring threads
I end up reading every thread regardless of whether or not the topic interests me because I'm compulsive about the orange "new post" icons.

Re: Ignoring threads
I go thorough phases. Sometimes I can't get enough of this place and read everything new. Sometimes I could care less, but I can't stop visiting so I'll look down the list of new posts and say " ah, fuck this; off to T(A)U."

Re: Ignoring threads
I've complained about this before, but I have to read all the new posts,
because you Off-Topic ADHD motherfuckers might derail some boring
Dune Discussion with some of the good entertainment ... and also,
the cross-thread postings ...
but seriously, what precautions are we taking against the Charwood Zombie ?

Everything but "Politics" for me. I don't even look inside there any longer.Redstar wrote:I end up reading every thread regardless of whether or not the topic interests me because I'm compulsive about the orange "new post" icons.
And, rarely, I'll just skip a thread that has gotten insanely boring. It really is fairly rare, though, because most of the conversation around here is pretty good.

Re: Ignoring threads
The Return of Harwood would be glorious. As a skilled dramatist, he must know that he should return and add a few chapters to this epic tale. He can't let the story end on the cliffhanger bequeefing of the blog. We must have The Revenge of Frank Walden.SandRider wrote: but seriously, what precautions are we taking against the Charwood Zombie ?
I know the first three (maybe four, by now) books, and am in the process of learning about Heretics and Chapterhouse, and I try to read everything. And you never know when an Onasander is going to pop up.

Or off.
I searched Twitter a bit yesterday for accounts having to do with Norman, Oklahoma.
I know he's out there, somewhere.
I can feel him.

I just HAVE to read everything because you never know where some great entertainment might pop up.

I recently "friended" my most recent ex-girlfriend on FB. Amazingly she's still hot.
