Im actually surprised too, but just open "new posts" cause there is no way to catch up with all of these threadsIs it even possible to reduce the number of threads on this site. When I look at the current number of open threads approaching half a million, it is almost too daunting to even try to find out what thread updates since the last time I logged on. Being as old as I am, I may die before I find what I've missed, or who might have been deprived with the beauty of my wisdom.
You can click the "WATCH" tab at the top of the post window and it'll update you when there is new activity in that thread.Is it even possible to reduce the number of threads on this site.

Man it was enough for me to see that number of posts when I realized I will simply cant go over them all lol
At the end of each visit to INGO, click on Mark Forums Read near the top. Then when you open INGO again, click on New Posts. If you have other more specific interests, browse them at your leisure, but Mark Forums Read and New Posts keep the number of threads manageable.Is it even possible to reduce the number of threads on this site.

All this new fangled button clicking. When I was a wee lad here on INGO, we used to have to look for threads the old fashioned way, using the card catalog. And we had to walk uphill both ways in the snow (unless the INGO Bugatti was driving by, then you could occasionally get a lift!
Great reply!
It’s kinda like one of those things I grew up with, um, those flippy page things. BOOKS!!! That’s it books, knew I’d remember. I’m new here to, just start reading…the more the better. Soon enough you will figure out the flow (and ebb) it will become second nature. Use the suggestions given you’ll be fine.Is it even possible to reduce the number of threads on this site.

I don't see a "WATCH" tab on my screen. Where would that be located?
Go up to the upper right corner of your original post in this thread.
Cute. SARCASM when I'm seriously looking for help.
You get notified of the responses to your posts. It's the little bell at the top of the screen. Oh look... someone either reacted to or quoted one of my posts.
And yet you have ignored both of my very helpful and specific answers to your questions.
To be fair, I think that's only for phone users. I don't have a Watch button on my computer.
I'm on my computer and I see it on mine, in the upper right corner just above the first post.
