    I actually have my settings set so that I dont get subscribed to every thread that I post in as I started to get a great long list of subscribed threads which was annoying me!

    Go into the User CP
    Then into options
    Then in the messaging and notification bit alter the setting so it reads do not subscribe

    I have a bookmarks folder in firefox for comps that I want to enter but haven't been able to yet for whatever reason. That way I can go through them when I get a chance.

    Hmm I know the subscribe lists exist but I never use it/them, i just go by the little tick at the side of the posting to know whether i have commented.

    I remember that glitch, it took me a while to work out what was happening then I found how to switch it off and unsubscribe.
