Forum and Thread Subscriptions - Omniscient - Jul 13, 2018

I have reset all thread and forum subscriptions. A plugin now prevents non-upgraded members from subscribing. You must have L33t, Ub3r, or r00t to use subscriptions. Changes have been made to the upgrade features page.

This was done in order to work on the email notification problems we were having with delayed notification emails. I'm still working on it but I hope that lowering our email delivery rate will increase delivery time.

Thank you.

That was actually Xerotic, who I notified of your constant flaming and harassing. Just gave him the heads up about this account as well.

Great update Omni. Good stuff as always!


RE: Forum and Thread Subscriptions - Omniscient - Jul 13, 2018

Well, this had to get done. We already have thread subscriptions based on upgrade but the forum subscriptions were blocked in 1.6x. When we moved to 1.8x I hadn't done the same changes. And this week I reviewed the database and saw hundreds of bot accounts with forum subscriptions.

Now all fixed permanently with a proper plugin.

Small things like this makes HF run smoother and better everyday. I remember when you banned some guy for 6 months in the past for having like 2k thread subscriptions. Thanks for keeping us updated. 🤝

Keep up the good work.

You and the Staff deserve many back pats indeed


RE: Forum and Thread Subscriptions - Saltpeter - Jul 13, 2018

Sounds good. I would have never thought that bot accounts with thread subscriptions would become an issue.

Good work.

What's the % of people using thread subscription?

I've barely used it all these years, is it even a popular add-on?

It is pretty useful now if you use the alerts system. You can subscribe with "No Notification" but you will still receive MyAlerts for it.

I've used it a few times in the past, it can be useful for marketplace threads, for example if you're looking to buy something from the members auction section and you want to keep up to date on the current bid. 👍

Oh wow, I didn't realize it worked with the alerts system, I guess I should pay more attention haha

That's pretty cool

Changed my email on site, but I am still receiving delayed notification emails to my old email.

I’m sure it’s going to take some time to cycle through all the old
Subscription we had before the reset Omni did today.

The my alerts system works well for me
