Callum Gilhooley Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Genuine question which the mods may be able to help with. Is there some way of limiting what comes up when i hit the "unread content " button ? Obvs you can put individual members on Ignore but is it possible to set my settings so i simply dont get any notifications of activity in certain sections ?

antrin Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 aye.... I was seeking the same help earlier in another post. I don't care about the Sinbin or the opinions in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I think his nose is out of joint because he believes Div is making a cnut of running his own forum, can't moderate his own forum, shouldn't have started the Sin Bin, and hasn't been slow in letting Div know about it over the past few months. His posts will be there somewhere ripping into Div. Edited January 10, 2017 by pozbaird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 There is only one Dunfermline v St Mirren Matchday Thread. The one in the Bin is a General Matchday Thread to cover all Games. Specifically for Sinners to post Pre, During and After all Matches. If I wanted to do all Matches in the Matchday Thread they would already be done all the way to the end of the Season.

shull Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 And Posters don't have to click on " UNREAD CONTENT " to bring up new stuff. Just go to whichever Section you desire and click on DOT next to Thread Title. Which means you don't need to go near the Sin Bin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THAT means we have to fiddle through every thread title to click on something we MIGHT want to see whereas, UNREAD CONTENT allows you to see the first few lines and who has posted it. I'm sure there might be one (ok maybe two ) people who might NOT want to be exposed to my posts... ALL this cos one obnoxious wanker would not take a hint.... sigh.

Simple AND THANKS ANYWAY SHULL Thanks for trying, but it's not what's needed. with unread content - one click - I see all of the threads. i see who has posted. I click on those I want to read, skipping the uninteresting ones. after I've read the few that I want to read, I mark the forum as read. It clears away the shite (usually left by you and the other eedjit). the Sin Bin just makes the forum even more cluttered, unreadable and inaccessible. It's unwelcoming and unattractively confusing to any new person who stumbles in. Dickhead and other trolls are winning: the forum's getting screwed up. They're as effective as the Fundamentalist nutters who have made airport travel crap for the majority of punters who would prefer a simple life. Though I appreciate div's effort, the targeting of troublemakers needn't have such repercussions for the innocent majority. THANKS ANYWAY SHULL. Eta:. MANY THANKS, DIV. GREAT JOB.

I know you struggle through simple stuff so the highlighted sentence. Unless you have spoken to all these "new people". Looks like YOU can't cope with forum life. Time to retire, again?

You can customise what appears as being unread content as follows. Click Activity, Unread Content At the top of Unread Content there are a strip of drop down buttons. Click the drop down next to Content Types and choose Topics. Then click the little cog icon next to that option "Narrow by Forums" appears. Click that drop down and choose all the forums you want to see unread content from. Once you've done all that just click anywhere outside of the drop down to commit the changes. Then click the "Save As New Stream" button Give your new customised Stream a name and hit Create Stream Now if you want to see your customised version of Unread at any time just go to Activity, My Activity Streams, then choose the Stream you have just created Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antrin Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 You plastering every post with emoticons to give them an illusion of depth and content won't make it work. It doesn't hide your basic simplicity. Neither does you projecting your self image of 'dullard' onto other posters. We can see your posts and your multiple emoticons and know that shiny things are making you appear no brighter. There is no such thing as forum life. The Forum is, on the whole, a cesspool with some glimmers of fun, intelligence and originality displayed by a few posters, which is why I'd rather not have to read their posts. I don't wish to wade through a miasma every time I look at the forum. Others understand that. You don't. Put me on Ignore, please You claim to have put me on IGNORE many, many times.... yet you recommend that function for other people to use. Why don't you? And, by your post above, I take it you don't realise that new people find the Forum, regularly and that many prefer to lurk rather than have cretins who seem bored off their tits in a desert, (eg YOU) describe them as dullards?

Not quite the "one click " option i was looking for but Ta much. Just need to get out of the habit of hitting the unread content button as default !
