Subscribing = clogging up a thread

[dustysky]

I was wondering why people clog up picture threads, such as the food or hotel etc. threads with a post that says subscribing?

There is a way to subscribe without clogging the thread. At the top of every thread there is a button that says thread tools, you just click it and say subscribe to this thread. (just incase some didnt know that)


Hope this post helps those that didnt know and also those reading threads that should only be pictures

They probably just don't know about it and sometimes posting (With the auto subscription thing) is just easier.

I know I forget sometimes. At least if it is just the word "subscribing"--it won't take you long to get past that post.

Didn't know that. Thanks.

People do the same thing on the Freebies thread on the Budget Board. It's hard engough to keep up with all the free offers and then you have to page through "subscibing". Someone already explained that they don't need to post to subscribe but they still do.

Well I was not trying to sound rude, just a little pet peeve of mine. I love the food thread but it is SOOOOO full of chit chat and subscribing post's now that some pages are JUST text (full pages).

Like I said I just hope the "tip" I gave helps

Thanks, Lori. I've noticed a lot of it too.

It's annoying to those who know where to find the thread tools. Equally as bothersome are those who use the QUOTE button to add a reply to a thread instead of using the QUICK REPLY next to QUOTE or the POST REPLY button at the top of the page which can be cumbersome when posts are copied with lots of pictures. I feel sorry for anyone without high speed internet who dares to open those threads.

I guess it just doesn't bother me.
