I subscribe to a fair bit and was just wondering when my subscription to these threads get deleted?

Is it when the thread is archived? when is that?

Is there a maximum number of subscriptions you can have and the oldest to be updated gets bumped off?

Ta,

Jamie

Good question. I subscribe to some threads just so that I don't need to bookmark them. I just go to the "Today" page to find them.

olds, why not use the favorites option its on every thread? the star icon. Allows you to store favorite threads in fusetalk, viewable from the today page.

Just a question but why on the Today Page do Favorites not have have Posts, Last Updated or even the folder icon that is supposed to indicate that there are new posts like Subscribed Topics?

The column for Favorites is the same width as the column Subscribed Topics and those threads have all the info so it's obviously not a matter of it not fitting.

So you are subscribed for a thread forever essentially, even if it is archived?

Is there a theoretical limit to all these subscriptions?

aves, that one is because favorites can be archived or not, it's a code thing (not sure if that will change).

OK, I was just curious.

I never realized it was there. I'll give it a try, thanks. :)
