How long has it actually been working? What I mean is, I've just accidentally "subscribed" to a thread ,and it's appeared in a little box under the Latest Posts box over there >>>>

Please tell me it's relatively new and not been active for months!

This doesn't seem equitable. Nobody else suffers financial loss because they're overweight...

As little as thirty years ago............

I didn't know it was working again either, B00, but I haven't found a thread sufficiently elevated for me to subscribe to, so it don't bother me none.

Don't worry B00. You're not alone. I know it used to work years ago, but I'd forgotten it existed, so thanks for highlighting it. It might save me some searching!

ChuckFickens

Yep it has....

What really annoying is if you subscribe to a thread from a user who gets banned later, you'll have the little box saying you are subscribed to the thread but you can't get rid of it as the thread will have gone so there is no unsubscribe button available!

I'm very very observant- as you can tell. Thanks Naomi, I don't feel as stupid now (well, actually I do, but i'm trying cling on a the tiny shred of dignity I still have!)
