“Place marking” isn’t necessary!

[Kitchendoctor]

Does everyone know there is an option to “watch” a thread?
It’s really quite tedious scrolling through pages of non-comments from people who are interested but don’t have anything to say.
Not to mention if it is a popular or long-running thread, which goes over the post limit, subsequent threads get filled up ever more quickly with the constant “place marking”.
Just select “watch this thread”!

PMK for the bunfight.

Ooh, shameless place mark.

Also that people CAN change their vote so "Sorry, gosh, I voted wrong." is simply unnecessary

And to bookmark at a post so you know where you got to

Why would there be a bun fight?

.

Oh! Thanks, never knew! Been on here years and never realised.

Place marking hun

@Davros I have only just realised that function too, accidentally found out about that one.

Well, maybe it was a hope. I'm on here for entertainment. I quite like a nice bunfight of an evening.

@HoomanMoomin Nice username

Definitely not into hunning
Or famalam
Or cheeky things
Or making memories

What about Hubby or Hubster

Maybe Mumsnet should change “watch this thread” to “place Mark” or “lurk”, then everyone will know what it’s for 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don't think you get that option on the app

Yes you do @fedupwiththisshitnow use the arrows!

fish, rug, male regent.

PMK

Bookmark? How'd you do that, then?

On the app

Knew about the watching but not the bookmarking. I knew you could bookmark on the website but not the app

Haven’t rtft but didn’t want to read and run

@SquirtleSquad

thanks. can't see the option on the website though?

forget that - it's just come up

Well said, it drives me insane.
