    Question How about a single click link to show the threads you've posted in

    To get a list of all the threads you've posted in - sorted chronologically from most recently updated to oldest - you've got to go through about a five step process in the Advanced Search section. Why not have a single link - as do many other message boards - which will get you there?
    Holding a pitcher accountable for how many runs his team scores is like holding the designated hitter accountable for how many runs his team allows.

    An individual statistic is meaningful only if it is based strictly on what the player does and not on what the other players on his team do.

    1. Click on Settings (top right)
    2. Click on General Settings (under My Account on left-hand sidebar)
    3. Change Default Thread Subscription Mode to "Through my control panel only"
    4. Quick Links -> Subscribed Threads will now show you every thread you post in

    Don't think there's a way to get it to do that for all the threads you've ever posted in but yeah that's how I've been doing it for 6+ years and it's worked well

    Unfortunately my settings doesn't have an option for "through my control panel only"

    On a similar note, there is no longer a way to change your signature or avatar.

    Whoever said this was a thankless job? First of all, BiZ, you forgot to note me to tell me how much I rock for showing you that "five-step process." No autographs, please. ...I can't speak for the single link, but at least it's doable, no?

    For anyone who missed it, it uses...

    Advanced Search >> Search Single Content Type
    Search Type: Posts
    Keyword(s): leave blank, and select "Search Titles Only" from the drop-down
    User Name: Enter your user name
    Tag: leave blank
    Select "Search in All Open Forums"
    Show results as: Threads
    "Search Now"

    Not very complicated.

    As Bedard said, it's in your Settings >> General Settings >> Messaging & Notification >> Default Thread Subscription Mode. It's a drop-down selection. Is it not in your Settings?

    How's that? They're both in your Settings and both quite functional. If you're having difficulties, feel free to either PM me or post here. We'll do our best to help. ...with or without a thank-you.
    Put it in the books.

    Don't beg, son, don't beg.

    Gerardo Parra, a lefthand batter, steps in to lead off. Harvey's first pitch on the way, it's a fastball on the inside corner for a called strike, nothing and one, a 93-mile per hour fastball to Gerardo Parra. Parra batting at .281 with 6 homers, 28 runs batted in. - Howie Rose's call of Matt Harvey's very first pitch in the big leagues... Mets at Arizona, July 26, 2012

    Since I saved the settings, it's actually now just a two step process. No need to use Bedard's method.

    Now the edit avatar & edit signature sections are working. I don't know what the problem was earlier!

    BTW, where else can I find the multi-team avatars like the one I'm using. I'd much prefer to have one rotate between Tigers/Padres/Orioles than A's/Dodgers/Mets.

    Thanks for your help!
