Hello there jolly polycounters, quick n´ easy:
How the f*ck do I unsubscribe to the "WAYWO" thread? Posted some shit there a while ago and now I´m getting BOMBARDED with emails. Dont want to to turn off mail notifications but the mails regarding that thread are busting my balls.

Cheers! Have a nice weekend

Then un-star the threads you don't want to sub to.

I dont have any bookmarked threads. Im talking about a thread where I posted and then it keps sending me emails whenever someone posts wich is in the case of that thread (what are you worfking on) is every 4 minutes. I dont want to cancel all notifications, only those comming from that thread, its not a bookmarked thread

Then, in the current system, you gonna have to uncheck >> Notify me when people comment on discussions I've participated in <<
And Subscribe/Favorite to what you really want to see update. or when someone mention you.

Below is my notification settings.

I recently made the jump, and once you get used to favoriting the threads you care about, it feels pretty much the same. I wish commenting would auto-favorite, but apparently it's not possible yet with the current system.

If that's the case; then it would be the same as checking >> Notify me when people comment on discussions I've participated in <<
So, I don't think commenting should auto-fav.

"Notify me when people comment on discussions I've participated in" is a blanket system, it doesn't let you unsubscribe from high-traffic threads. It's better to turn that off, and manually choose which threads you want notifications for, by clicking "Add To Favorites".

Raise up from the dead, thread!


So, I found myself in the same situation others here, and being a big nerd I wrote a rudimentary userscript to auto fav threads upon replying. It adds a small checkbox under the reply textarea that can be on or off by default:



I thought it might be useful for whoever stumbles on this thread in the future. To use it you'll need an userscript extension. I use Tampermonkey on both my desktop browser (it's based on Chromium) and my mobile browser (Firefox).

// ==UserScript==
// @name		Polycount Thread Auto Fav
// @namespace		polycount
// @description		Automatically favorite threads when replying
// @version		1.0
// @author		birb
// @match		https://polycount.com/*

this.$ = window.jQuery.noConflict();

;(function ( $, undefined ) {
// Set to "false" to disable autofav by default
var default_fav = true

// Cosmetic Changes
    var bookmark_form_opt = '<div class="CUSTOM_autofav_form" style="padding-top: .75em;"><label style="color: inherit;"><div id="CUSTOM_autofav" class="icheckbox icheck-item icheck[rmcrd]" style="vertical-align: baseline; width: 1.3em; height: 1.3em;"></div> Auto Favorite thread upon replying</label></div>';

    $('#Form_Comment div div.TextBoxWrapper').append(bookmark_form_opt);

    if(default_fav) {
        $('#CUSTOM_autofav').addClass('checked');
    }

// AutoFav checkbox support
    $('#CUSTOM_autofav').click(function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        $(this).toggleClass('checked');
    });

// AutoFav function
    $('#Form_PostComment').click(function(e) {
        // only bookmark when fav is enabled and it's not already faved
        if ($('#CUSTOM_autofav').hasClass('checked') && !$('.PageControls.Top a.Bookmark').hasClass('Bookmarked')) {
            $('.PageControls.Top a.Bookmark')[0].click();
        }
    });
})(window.jQuery.noConflict());

Love this. Kudos!

I'm glad to help! Isn't that an incredibly elegant script with that makeshift fancy Bookmark button auto-click and everything? 

I should note I've been using it for a couple of weeks without issues, but don't hesitate to let me know if anything breaks.
