Snails - Response on Threads Part 3

[Katya]

Hey kat! I'm with Stone. I never use My Posts. I'm not even sure what it is but it can't be easier than subscribing and hitting the settings button. Easy peasy.

I hate subscribing--because then I have to unsubscribe, and that's too much work for me.

I click on What's New button (dark blue bar in the upper left corner) and then My Posts. That takes me to the threads (not posts ) I have posted on. If someone has responded, the title of the thread is bolded. As soon as I lose interest and stop posting in a particular thread, the thread eventually drops to the bottom of the page and then out of site.

You should try it sometime!

Tell me about it...

I was lost here for about an hour without My Posts... I felt like a noob.

I didn't have any trouble with my subscriptions.

Has anyone had to change their password?? I had to this morning.

 

[tiburonfirst]

[FranC]

[FranC]

Good morning...

i have a shiny new password too.

 

[tiburonfirst]

morning, ces! shiny or not, i'll be going back to the old in a few days!

I hope the lag when going to "first unread" is fixed eventually. It used to be seamless, but right now it goes to the fist page of the thread, and then jumps to the first new post. It's minor, but disconcerting...especially if my brain doesn't have enough caffeine and i'm already easily confused.

 

[FranC]

Morning,CES......Hate password change. I'll be going back too.

 

[CES]

going back woul djust make me more confused...i'd have to remember whether i went back or not.

 

[FranC]

LOL..sounds like me......

so, one drawback to not being on ECF yesterday morning was that i had to do something else while i was avoiding work in the morning.

That something else was ordering a new laptop. My current one works but the university is going to stop allowing XP on the network after microsoft stops supporting it in April. grrr. I'll have to get the OS on my work desktop re-installed (and keep an XP mode partition so i can run the programs that the lab can't afford to upgrade). The data computers will have to come off the network, which will make backing up data a real pain. But rather than doing the OS reinstall and partition on my 5 year old laptop, when the useful life of dell computers is almost exactly 5 years before they self-destruct, i ordered a new one. I get to learn not only windows 7, but also windows 8.1
