Title: which boards do you follow in your Watchlist?
Post by: bitmover on April 20, 2018, 08:44:11 PM
Hello,

I have been seen too many useless posts on most boards I follow. I wanna ask you guys which boards do you follow, maybe I am missing some good one.
I follow now:

    Bitcoin Discussion (ID 1)
    Bitcoin Technical Support (ID 4)
    Development & Technical Discussion (ID 6)
    Economics (ID 7)
    Meta (ID 24)
    Beginners & Help (ID 39)
    Speculation (ID 57)
    Português (Portuguese) (ID 29) (My local)

Thank you!

Um... Watchlist and watch boards are different...
Watchlist: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=watchlist
watchboard: https://bitcointalk.org/watch_board.php
They both have their own similarities and differences..
My watchlist consists of topics I am interested to read//post/reply in. I don't use watchboard at all.
If you want to follow any boards,you can follow exchanges (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=223.0),service discussion  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=85.0)and reputation (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=129.0)(You'd have a lot of fun there,with the one and only Quicksy..) ;D

I thought that when I added a board to watch board, it was automatically added to the watchlist. Isn't this what happens?

When you visit the watch board,you get this info:
Quote
Adding a board to this list will cause all new topics posted there to be added to your watchlist automatically. You must enter the board ID, which is visible in the URL: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=39.0.

However,you don't need necessarily need to watch a board for adding topics in your watchlist.
When you visit a thread,you can watch that thread by adding it to your watchlist by clicking the watch button on the top right corner of the page:

Or when you reply,you can explore the additional options below your text editor and check the watch topic option on/off:
