Post by: lenny_ on December 24, 2012, 02:40:40 PM

Have you tried deleting all your posts from these threads?

No, but why the hell would I?
"Unwatch" topic should work, but it isn't.

1. Go to https://bitcointalk.org/watchlist_posts.php and click "Do it".
2. Make sure that replied-to threads are automatically added to watchlist (I think this is the default but doesn't hurt to check).
3. Unwatch all unwanted threads.
4. Forget that "Updated Topics" ever existed. Use the watchlist.

Also, the proper subforum for this is "Meta". "Technical Support" is for support with Bitcoin.

Thank you Meni! That's exactly what I did. I'm gonna use Watchlist only from now on:)

It wasn't the default, but I just changed that.

So the only solution is "Forget that "Updated Topics" ever existed. Use the watchlist." 
Why not have the entire "Updated Topics" as an option removed already.
I even went as far as to ignore the OP, yet there it is in my "Updated Topics", grayed out as if that's enough.
