How to unsubscribe from threads without trawling through pages and pages...?

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
Okay, so I've got a few threads now that I want to unsubscribe from, but there seems to be no easy way to do this. Before, I could just go onto the thread itself and there would be an option to unsubscribe, but now I only get an option to subscribe, even though I already am. redface.gif

When I look at my new subscribed threads, there used to be an option to unsubscribe from the threads there, but now there isn't. That was the easiest way for me to unsubscribe from threads before. I've tried going into the "manage my subscriptions" page and after going through 11 pages of subscriptions and using the search feature, this thread that I've subscribed to still wasn't there.

So where on Earth do I find the option to unsubscribe from this thread?!

Go to subscriptions, click edit my subscriptions and remove the thread you want from the list using the red X next to "Remove".

The problem is, the thread I wanted to remove a couple of days ago wasn't in that section. I thought it must be sorted by when I first subscribed, which was a while ago, so I did a search for it and then went through manually, and I'm sure it wasn't there.

Anyway, am I the only one who finds this way totally illogical? It would be so much easier to be able to unsubscribe whilst seeing the threads that have recently had replies - I'd look at my subscribed threads which had updates, see one that I didn't want to follow any more, and click unsubscribe. Or at the very least, I'd be able to open that thread up and unsubscribe whilst viewing it. Having to go to a separate list of subscribed threads and trawl through the pages or use a search function just seems really unnecessary to me.

Yeah I got so fed up of it I ended up turning subscriptions off. (yeah I know use it you may like it in time) I think this is something that could do with a look at, it just feels like you have to go the long way round

It's true, it needs either some more sorting options or the unsubscribe button in the thread/activity feed itself.

Has anyone continued to look into this, it's so frustrating because I set it to subscribe to all replied threads so I can look but then I keep getting contests and various crap I don't want to see and its such a process to remove it I just don't read though my subscriptions
