Hi all,
Vanilla are planning an update to the site on April 24th (next Wednesday). It is a major PHP8 update which is expected to boost performance across the site. The site will be down from 7pm and it is expected to take about an hour to complete. We appreciate your patience during the update.
Thanks all.

Ever unfollow your own thread ?

    You start a thread, it potters along for a while & then gets sidetracked into stuff you know nothing about, so unfollow it.

    I've done it a couple of times..

    I have every notification turned off from boards so there's no need.

    I don't think I've ever followed a thread on boards. Do people really find it that hard to just scan a page of thread titles and see the ones that interest them?

    I've never followed one of my own threads ... so, no, I wouldn't ever have UNfollowed one of my own, either!

    Just checked my user cp and my followed thread and subscribed thread folders are both empty, maybe I hit a button somewhere at some stage to not keep that kind of stuff since I never use it anyway, meh.

    Once I was tempted to! I started a discussion on the politics board and it went way off topic and turned into a fairly heated debate. I never did unfollow it but I never posted in the thread

    No, but sometimes - looking in the mirror - I can't give myself an erection.

    You sure can ... opening your email page to find hundreds of posts from boards.ie is like finding hundreds of menu slips from your local Chinese or Pizza parlour .
