WTMCassandra Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Sometimes I feel like a maniac, subscribing to so many threads. And isn't it funny that once you are subscribed to one, you are subscribed basically "forever," but you only get to see the last five positive rep comments? Something seems weird about that. Anyhoo, I'm up to 145 threads! (Oops, that would be 146 including this one!) I guess I'm just wondering exactly how weird I really am compared to the rest of you. :D Please weigh in on this frivolous topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamela H in Texas Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 NONE....I don't subscribe to ANY of them. I just read the first 3-7 pages at a time (unless it's like tonight and I've been on page one for two hours). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTMCassandra Posted May 25, 2008 Author Share Posted May 25, 2008 Wow, you guys. I never even considered "none" as a choice. Sorry about that. I don't think I can go back and modify the poll, can I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8filltheheart Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Wow, you guys. I never even considered "none" as a choice. Sorry about that. I don't think I can go back and modify the poll, can I? I wish I could boost your morale for your poll by saying 200! :) But my answer is 0 also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GailV Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I automatically subscribe to every thread in which I post, plus I subscribe to a few more that I think are interesting. I get automatic emails whenever someone posts something new on the threads (since the last time I've been signed in), so I can follow the discussions without having to check in on the board constantly. That's how I could find Doran's comment to me about Macs and PCs, for example, and make a goofy reply. I probably wouldn't participate much on this board without the subscription feature, along with the email notification. Umm, excuse me, my email just dinged, so someone must've replied to another thread that I've posted on ... think I'll go check that out....

ELaurie Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 but this fancy new search engine is so efficient that I'm tempted to just unsubscribe all of them rather than sorting the ones I think I'd like to save and attempting to file them in folders like I used to on the old boards. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nancypants Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Maybe 5... I only subscribe to a thread if it's #1 about curriculum or #2 a pressing personal matter that I need advice on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 NONE....I don't subscribe to ANY of them. I just read the first 3-7 pages at a time (unless it's like tonight and I've been on page one for two hours). Exactly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crissy Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I've not subscribed to any. I usually remember to check back on those posts that I find interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivetails Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I've not subscribed to any. I usually remember to check back on those posts that I find interesting. Same here. I don't do the subscribing thing - I just poke around until I find them....If it's interesting to me, then I usually remember the thread name.. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tammyla Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I've not subscribed to any. I usually remember to check back on those posts that I find interesting. Same here. :iagree: I tried at first, but it was so much to keep up with. This is such a wonderful, fast, super big board to keep up with for little old me and my dinky pc:lol: When did I start dreaming of a MAC:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yvonne Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 60. I don't think I'd ever find them again if I didn't subscribe w/ a weekly update. Besides, it seems to save a lot of time just getting one big email. Maybe I'm missing something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holly IN Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I subscribe only to the ones that I really loved and needed to refer back to. Also if I didn't have time to read it at the time then I subscribe it until I get to reading it. So many valuable information on these board. I do not have the time to go hunting for a thread that I wanted to review so I subscribe to them. I have 50 right now. Holly ETA: I work a job so I really do not have time to search for threads. That is why I subscribe. I do not do it friviously (sp?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Hood Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 None now. I have unsubscribed to all that I had subscribed. If I want to refer back to one of my own posts I check on my profile. If I want to keep up with something, I email the thread or link to myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTMCassandra Posted May 26, 2008 Author Share Posted May 26, 2008 Ah well, I guess this is public confirmation that I'm weird. I like the email reminders to check on specific threads. And since I've been researching high school stuff, my interests have expanded. And the subscriptions are cumulative--so that's 150 threads since the boards opened.
