How many threads are you subcribed to?

[Renysmom]

I just went into my subscription list to see if I could find an old thread and saw the number of threads I was subscribed to...132 No wonder I never get through my other emails since I always go to my Disboards folder first..

How many are you subscribed to?

 

[robind]

58 - wow I should clean that up.

 

[Jubilee]

like a million

 

[MomofKatie]

Since I joined in 2004- 4299!!

But I'd say, at any given time, about 15- 20 active threads that I get email notices from.

 

[cocowum]

1337...well, now it'll be 1338

 

[daneenm]

297

If I don't subscribe, then I lose track of what I was finding interesting and miss it for days on end. I like seeing the messages pop up in my inbox.

20,574 and I have deleted some.

 

[Verandah Man]

3228 counting this thread........

I have unsunscribed from some old threads from time to time over the years.......

 

[OKW Lover]

Less than 50.

I make an effort to keep the list down to one page by unsubscribing once a topic has run its course.

Over 1300, but I periodically clean them up, when I have time.

The thing is, when I'm cleaning them up, I discover some pretty interesting past conversations that I'm loath to give up...this morning I started reading the posts of a now- deceased member, Mumbling Jumba (husband of Evil Genius). Now I don't want to get rid of any of my old posts, lest those links should prove nostalgic in the future.

169 and still counting. I have become addicted to knowing everything I can about Disney. At first my husband thought it was a novelty but now he is not sure. I have learned so much on these boards

here's a dumb question.... how can I subcribe?? (I haven't a clue you could subscribe to the threads... I was having a hard time keeping up with the threads)

 

[stitchlover]

908 now...

How to subscribe? I am not the best person to answer this. I believe in your User CP you can select an option that says if you reply to a thread you will get an email with all the responses from that point out. You can choose to get an individual email from each thread or a daily or weekly summary. I get individual reply notices, which I prefer. Surely someone else will be able to answer your subscription question more thoroughly. Good luck!

I'm at 1039 and I cleaned some up a few weeks back. I should do it again and get rid of some of those old ones!

ETA: When you post on a thread it subscribes you. I just go to Quick Links and then select Subscribed Threads and I can keep up with them that way. That is what I do when I come to the DIS, check out that list and then maybe peruse the forums I like for new stuff. I don't get any emails or anything with updates.

I only have 95 but I am a bit OCD I tend to clean anything I can and weekly take out the non active ones I'll never go back to. mostly the threads that aren't on the DIS Unplugged forum that are a one look deal!!!!!

if you go to User CP there is an edit option which you can pick to subscribe when ever you post in a thread.

I know when I joined in march I had to choose this option it wasn't defaulted to this option!!!

1 click user cp
2 Click edit options
3 under Messaging & Notification go to the Default Thread Subscription Mode
4 and change it to anything in that pull down bar except do not subscribe!!!

 

[MenashaCorp]

423 (424 now, I guess...)
