I have not subscribed to the threads in question, but they always show up at the top of my "YOUR POSTS" which is how I prefer to browse OO most of the time. Is there a way to "forget" that I have posted in these threads so they don't show up any more?
Thanks
How do I delete posts from showing in "YOUR POSTS"?

Re: How do I delete posts from showing in "YOUR POSTS"?
"Your posts" (AKA egosearch ) is based on the fact that you posted in the thread and I don't think there's a way to forget that you posted in it. At least not a way that would contribute to a stable database.
It's sorted by most recent post date so most of the unwanted ones should fall off as they get stale. Of course if you post in a random randomness thread or steam sales or something, you might be stuck with it on top.

Use google as the way to choose which OO threads to look at and file a "Right to Forget" notice with them for any threads you don't want showing up. Easy peasy.

Oh you mean like that goddamn Random Randomness thread that I posted in ONE TIME like 5 years ago that's 385 pages long now, and it won't let me forget it because it's always at the VERY TOP when I View My Posts?

I have considered learning how to mod phpBB just so I can fix and support the "ignore thread" mod.
