List of Dotted Threads Suggestion


Website Feedback


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Hello all. I just had a suggestion you could possibly use. It might already be a thing I just haven't found yet.

I am an almost strictly mobile user, so by either a quirk in the site or a combination of large thumbs and small link buttons, I have gone and somehow dotted a large number of threads I have nothing to do with. Like, the discussion pages of games I'm not in, things I don't remember looking at, etc.

I was wondering if there could be a function to list and edit your dotted threads. It could be a tab under your main alias only visible for you, like the private message tab.

This might already exist, so if it does a link or instructions would be magnificent.

Thanks for running a great site and a great game. :)


Anyone have anything to say?
Yes? No? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard?
Is it just one of those "eh. It could be cool, but I really don't care." Kind of things?


I'd definitely like to be able to remove a dot from a thread I've posted in. The question has been raised before, though, without any response from the PMG's team, whether negative or positive, iirc.

At one point it was theoretically possible to remove a dot from a thread, then we changed how the code worked and now I can't remember offhand if it's possible or if the new data structure prevents that. I am pretty sure the main obstacles to this have mostly to do with how the user interface should behave than any technical limitations.


Wasn't expecting anyone that could actually do anything about this to weigh in. O_o
Well, as long as you're here. XD
Would it be conceivable to have them listed together? I think since it knows what you've viewed, it wouldn't take too much to get them listed in one place. I don't really know much about coding websites, so please don't take this as an insult if it's actually really difficult.
Do you have an idea of how this would work?
I found the focused threads page on the message board section, it stopped alerting me about the random ones, but it's far from ideal, as someone might want to return later to a page they have hidden.
