The subscribe function causes threads you subscribe to to appear when you hit "my profile". Thats how i keep up with my buds (like cats dogs and coffee!).

We are definitely a diverse bunch!

How will the new people acclimate to this? Should they be "trained" before posting?

Also, what if I go senile and forget who likes what and who doesn't?

I am moody. I like things some days and dislike them the next. I just wait until I like those things again.

Boundaries are tough when there are too many to keep track of. Oh my.

Yeah, love the subscription feature, works great imo - plus I get to unsubscribe to threads I'm no longer into.

Pretty much, you set your own boundaries of how people can contact you. So you dont really have to remember anything.

At least you didnt until they came up with this unmentionable mention thingie!

I think thats good practice for people like me who might need help setting boundaries. When i first started here, i NEVER unsubscribed. Now im like the red queen, off with their heads!

I don't like it because it shows up as a notification the same way PMs do (which I have turned off for a reason). The only reason I get PMs is from moderators, etc. so I really don't want messages. This isn't FB or something. If I don't want to be notified, I don't want to be notified. It just feels like I'm being nagged. LOL!

It's the fact that the mentions come up under notifications that bothers me too. I see I have a notification. Click on that thinking I have a PM. Find out I have a mention instead. It's annoying.

That said, I don't care much whether people mention me or not. I sure don't expect other people to remember if I like it or not. It would be nice to be able to turn it off though.

I have no problem being mentioned by name for the most part - it is the notification I object to

I'm of the same opinion as both of these posts.
