What irritates me with our new website

1. Getting flooded in my mail by 'subscriptions' to threads I once wrote in, finding no way to turn it of in here?
It should be my choice if I want to 'subscribe'.
2. Finding no 'global' way of turning of those yellow fat moons (smileys) I just don't like them. I'm not into Facebook, twitter, etc and I don't think that everything I write need to be commented upon there, and the same goes for what you write :) btw.
In conclusion, the look of our new web site is nice and clean, but I'm missing global settings that we should be able to set, as well as I don't see what Facebook etc has to do with TNS?

3. Okay, a third one. I used to be able to set a time for staying logged in. That seems gone now, and suddenly I find myself logged out without knowing. It may have to do with my choice of browser (Firefox), but in the first instances of this new version I still could set a time as I remember.

If you look at your profile - modify profile, notifications - you should see a list of topics you are being notified on. At the side of each topic is a check box and at the bottom an option to unnotify any checked topics.
Also you should be able to uncheck
Turn notification on when you post or reply to a topic.
and then save that setting
Can you try that and let me know if it works
Lots of testing going on to iron out bugs, thanks for feedback.

Hmm, yes :)
And thanks Colin. my bad.
Can we fix this with smileys too some way? Use them, but seeing them becoming all big and shiny afterwards scares the sh* out of me, makes me want to run.
Also this one about setting a time limit when I log in, found it useful before but it's gone now, for me at last?.

Don't know ant the smileys but can ask. Do you see them larger than text? I see them quite small.
Try this to log on with a time limit

If it doesn't work enter x as your username and log on, and the screen then appears for me.

That one worked perfectly, the link you gave I mean.
When it comes to turning of notifications though?
Would you commenting fall under " Receive forum newsletters, announcements and important notifications by email." in this case?
I left that one on, turning of " Turn notification on when you post or reply to a topic."
But still got a mail about you answering.
=
Eh, wouldn't by any chance be "For topics and boards I've requested notification on, notify me of: - - - nothing - - -" ?
Awwh
And yes, the smileys I see reminds me of full moons.

I'm fixing that! I have it working on the development server; just need to transfer it over here. There are a few other final jobs to do first...
