Is there a way to remove threads from new replies?

[Aine]

My show new replies is getting kinda crazy when I first log on.  Is there a way to trim a few, or will they always show up?

I've managed to at least prune the dead threads out of mine by going down the list and opening them.  They won't show up again until someone replies...

Took a few minutes, though.

I'm just making sure here, but arre you making sure to hit the "Mark all messages as read" tab after you open/read all the threads you think will be interesting?

Since I only ever read a couple threads here (too much spamming), it's an invaluable tool.

Well, I was thinking more along the lines of the "word association" thread.  I posted there once and now it shows up every time because sometimes people post in there every 15 seconds.  I know it will go when the thread is split, but I didn't know if there was some other option.
Thanks for the response, though!

You'll simply have to post there more often so its presence on the list is useful to you.

Yes, you can do this rather easily.

(1) Go to Profile -- > Notifications and Email --> Un-check "Turn notification on when you post or reply to a topic."
(2) Control your notifications in a per-thread fashion.  Do this by going to the thread you want notified about and click the button *Notify* located in the bar atop the first post (Next to Reply, etc.)

Now to remove that thread from your notifications ...

Go to Profile - Notifications and Email ... you will see the threads you've subscribed to there. Select the thread you want (check the box next to thread name) and his *UNSCUBSCRIBE*

Bingo

Hope that helps

Bah.  I am not quick-wittedly funny like you all. 

Thanks for the info, DBA!

 Glad to help. I assume it worked then?

I am going to try the per-thread notify and see how that works.

Yeah, I use that on a number of threads.  Quite handy!
