Title: Watchlist broken
Post by: Lauda on September 17, 2017, 07:27:58 PM
Theymos, what's going on? Seems to be affecting several people, if not everyone.

It seems that something triggered "Add posted-to topics to watchlist" and added every thread you have posted in to your watchlist.

What's the issue you're having, exactly? My Watchlist has been broken for a year as reported here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1598872.0), is it the same problem?

Clicked my watchlist, got PAGES of old stuff, thought "there must be a meta thread about this already". Sure enough.

Now I'm gonna have to watch this thread to find out if there is a solution other than to manually unwatch everything.

I've removed all unwanted threads from the watchlist and it's still showing me all threads I posted in...

Is it still happening? Everything seems normal for my watchlist.

All of the "list unread topics" pages have a tendency to get messed up, though it's often just temporary. I don't know why.

That didn't happen. You have 885 topics in which you've posted which are not in your watchlist, and Lauda has 2803.

My watchlist appears to be back to normal.

I am mistaken. Looking through my watchlist with "edit watchlist", I see that none of those threads were actually added to my watchlist. However I certainly saw all of those threads in my watchlist earlier which amounted to ~13 pages of unread messages that I have since cleared with "Mark all as read".

I don't have a clue if that's what's been happening to me. I was questioning in order to understand if you had the same issue as me (an absurd quantity of pages on the Watchlist). From what I've been seeing from other replies, this seems to be the case, but not for the reasons suggested.

Seems like I unfortunately ended up on the small cases that are not temporary :D But it's fine, I eventually started to ignore my Watchlist, I'll wait for the new forum. Marking all as read does nothing. This quite an old bug...

Seems to be alright (I hope).

Damn.

I guess I'll lock this soon unless someone else comes forward with the problem from yesterday.
