Do you subscribe to threads?

[ValencianNails]

Being the nosey so and so that I am I thought I'd find out how many of you subscribe to threads :green:

If you do subscribe to threads is it so you can find them again easily?

Is it because you like to know when there have been replies to threads you've participated in?

Is it because you like to follow a thread that you've not yet replied to but that you find is interesting?

If you don't yet subscribe to threads and want to then this article should help...

Nope Never Done It !

Amb X

[Hope]

I have to admit to only recently realising that this could be done :o .

I don't subscribe to many, but I guess that I have subscribed to threads for all of the reasons that you listed.
If I have started a thread and I have to go before I have had many replies I subscribe so that I can view it without having to look for it when I come back online.

Sometimes it will just be a thread that I am finding really interesting.

I have also subscribed to threads that have fab info in that I know I will want to be able to refer to in the future, then I won't need to do a search.

What about you then Sandi?

What about you then Sandi?
Being as my alzheimers is in full swing :rolleyes: I do an auto subscription to all threads I reply to...
Plus, if I think a thread is interesting but I don't have anything to add to it (yet) then I subscribe to those.
It's also a handy Mod tool, if there's a thread that looks like it'll kick off then I subscribe to that too lol

So basically I subscribe to nearly everything lmao...
it takes a while to delete my out of date subscriptions sometimes!!!

[leah82]

Yep been doing it for ages, comes in really handy!!! Have to go through them though soon as not sure how many your allowed, but I have a quite a few!!! :)

[oey]

Sure do!

I would be lost without subscribing to threads these days! I have automatically set up that I subscribe (without e-mail notification) to all threads that I post on and I quite often subscribe to threads that I want to follow too!

When I log onto Salon Geek the first place I go to is my User cp to review all my subscribed threads first before I look at any new ones.

If you do subscribe to quite a few threads - opt to not to be notified by e-mail as your inbox will soon become full with all the notification updates!

It sounds like you might as well just look at every thread Honey (especially at certain times of the month shall we say :wink2: :smack: )

[Lauz]

Yes i normally subscribe to threads that i want to watch as i am interested in the replies it is going to get.

Sometimes though i do forget about the subscribe to thread option!

[Tricky]

hi sandi

the only time i subsribe to a thread is when i feel like i might like to look up the information 2-6 months later and i know that it won't be easly found

i always check my profile and posts i have writen if somthing catches my attention i reply lol

i love your eye you are very welcome to keep it out for me xxxx

[Tiger Jay]

Can't say I've ever used it.

But will bare it in mind for the future! Thanks Sandi!:)

[loubylou]

Yes i subscribe to the ones mainly where i have learnt something new, i subscribe so if i forget how to do it i can go back to it and find my answer, because i would never remember the title and be able to find it in a search

[becca boo]

well isnt that some handy info. nope i never knew u could do that. That will be very helpful thankx

[adelekeegan1]

I do subscribe to threads on a regular basis. I quite often do it for valuable bits of info I might want at a later date.

[becki x]

I am subscribed to about 60 :eek:

[clara doon]

I subscribe to thread all the time, not only ones I've written in but ones that contain valuable information that might be useful at a later date xx

that reminds me better have a spring clean !!

[pure]

Yep - all the time. I can never re-find the threads I'm interested in otherwise.:rolleyes:

[Sals]

Yep - all the time. I can never re-find the threads I'm interested in otherwise.:rolleyes:

That's the reason I do it too. If I know I won't be able to log on for a while (yeah, like that ever happens!), I'll subscribe to a thread so I don't lose it.

[Noodle]

Yes, I subscribe periodically to threads which are of particular interest to me or for reference purposes.

I find the most useful thing to me is if I post a thread of my own, to which I am waiting for answers to a question or helpful advice, I am immediately alerted to the fact that replies have been received and so I don't keep having to use the search facility repeatedly.

[fifitrix]

I have never subscribed to a thread, but just read the tutorial on it, I think I'll try it :)

[Peter Pan]

i do when i remember

[jojosnails]

until i read this i didn't know you could!:rolleyes:

[sweetcorn1]

How do you do it? I don't understand.

I found this in the user cp bit earlier tonight before I even read this thread.

Also what are the Latest Reputation Received thingy below the subscription section?

If you read my article (link in the first post) it's all explained in a step by step kind of way.

Also what are the Latest Reputation Received thingy below the subscription section?

hth's

[maguire]

I do if there is information on a thread that might be of interest (if there is a link to a website) or if there is information that I feel could help me in the future then yes its a good way of storing help and advice that you may have found and may want to look back on at a later date.

[melissaq]

I do all of the above listed.....especially if I started one and want to see the replys without having to search for it ...

[Cathie!]

Don't know what it means!

[ValencianNails]

hth's :D

[talented talons]

I do subscribe mainly so i can keep up with the answers and find them easily too.

I like to know if any advice or suggestions i have given are useful at all. Plus if i have answered but am uncertain then its good to see other answers as to whether i was wrong or not.

[ValencianNails]

I'm still subscribing to threads... and just deleted shedloads of out of date ones LMAO

Thought I'd bump this thread for the peeps who didn't see it first time around :D

[Danger Mouse]

Yeah I do, especially if theres something I want to try out, it makes it easier for me to find at a later date.

[silver_griffin]

I subscribe when its something I need advice on or if its an interesting discussion.

[Liza Correa]

I subscribe sometimes...but I'm always read and I think very interesting!
In fact I prefer read than subscribe because I think great to see everyone to express an opinion. :)

[MrsR]

I should as I am forever searching for threads I want to re-read!
