h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Just now: 10.000

A mere 7,196

I can't keep up with you chatter boxes! I'm lagging behind on just under 8000. (I won't tell you how many postings that is...)

Still, this account has very nearly caught up with the old account, which has been going nearly 4 years! And I thought I was posting a lot less these days, not more. There's only about 75 conversations difference now.

13,116 (and No! I haven't posted to all of them)

Methinks a little housekeeping is in order

God knows...though its probably way too many!

Are you *seriously* going to sit there and unsubscribe from say, a couple of thousand of them. Each unsubscribe being done one conversation at a time. No, of course you're not!

I've only got 550, and I can't imagine the patience it'd take to unsubscribe from them all. I tell meself I am keeping them just in case someone writes something interesting to an already existing thread, instead of starting a new one.

Absolutely right. Take this thread for example, it keeps on coming back to life

I don't want to be sad and ungeeky, but what is the easiest way to find out?

B

Use your conversations list thus - MPxxxxxx?show=100&skip=0 - then manipulate the skip attribute

2,017, but I am a very diligent unsubscriber.

Wow! Old threads...you may hear from me on some long-lost convos in the near future.

B

Whilst I was meandering through the depths of Askh2g2 this afternoon, I was suprised how frequently I found threads that I was subscribed to. It's not like I've ever subscribed to the forum in it's entirity like some people do. So I guess I really *do* spend too much time here after all

11,313...

**returns from old threads**

My word, I was subscribed to some rubbish in those days.



B

I'm subscribed to more rubbish *these* days, I think.

Only 13023.
