Keeping up with threads that I am not interested in

I don’t understand why I have to keep scrolling down threads
that I am not interested in.

I don’t have VR. Why there threads?
I don’t have Axes and OHs, Why these threads?
Cessna Longitude. I only fly WT CJ4. Why these?

Did I do it to myself?

Please advise.

Go in to your Preferences, then Notifications/Tags.

You can mute tags here that you are not interested in, as well as watch one that you are.

For individual threads you may have viewed, and are no longer interested in, each thread has its own notification option. Change it from Normal to whatever option you require.

Thank you.

Are you actually digging in down the hierarchy or just viewing a top level of a section of the forum? If it’s the latter, you’re likley seeing all the posts in all the tags in a given category.

Thanks,

I always click the current thread title tp get the top panel and then click
“Home” and then click “Forums”.

Then I click “Unreads” and after going through them,
I’ll click “Latest” to see if there are any that are interesting.

I don’t remember ever clicking a thread like “Axes and OHs” because I have no idea what it is. I don’t know how it got into the “Unreads” list. But, I could have done it.

You’re looking at a top level of the forum. You need to use the links at the top to get into the sections that are of interest to you vs an overview of every conversation in that category. For example, this section this post is in is Community > General Discussions. If you select that, that’s all you’ll see.

Yes. I don’t fly the big boys.

Try going to your preferences and looking at these settings:

Adjusting them might cut down on the number of “unread” topics you see.

Yes, you are right. Top level of the Forum.

But, “Unreads” worked very well except for the threads that I have no interest in.

I would click the “Unread” and ignore all the following listings.

Yeah, that will show you every unread thread across the entire forum. If you’re interested in everything, that’s great. Obviously, that’s not the case for you. You’re better off going into the categories you ARE interested in and scrolling down. You’ll know what’s been read and what hasn’t by the colour of the thread title.

Thanks…

Go to each category you are not interested in.

Example: VR

At the top of each forum is an Alarm Bell. Select the Muted so the new posts or changed posts never appear for you.

Do this for every subcategory in VR that you don’t want to see.

When viewing the forum next, make sure you are at top most level, and use Latest button at the top to sort posts.

You will never see VR appear in this view again.

Thanks, will do.

EDIT

Not to be picky, but:

I only fly WT CJ4.
The Longitude (I don’t have as a Deluxe subscriber) and not interested in it.

The Bell would stop both.

But, there are others that I can stop.

So, thanks…

I got spanked for my last post. Here it is again, but slightly modified so as not to offend. You know who you are.

You mean I don’t have to see any posts about tubeliners? How great would that be. Sign me up.

Everyone happy now?
