Why is my "I'm on" list getting longer & longer?

Why is my "I'm on" list getting longer & longer? I'm sure that previously I could only see the last 5-7 threads?

Is it the same number of threads but more individual posts in each, maybe?

lucykate · 09/10/2009 21:04

odd!, mine is getting shorter, the threads i post on keep getting deleted!

Definitely more threads.......unless I've had a posting frenzy. I'm sure that in the past older threads simply "disappeared" after a certain length of time?

There's a "days to check" option in the Talk preferences - you shouldn't have any older than whatever's set there.

Sorry, I realise that's not a whole lot of help!

JJ · 09/10/2009 21:10

at just posting more than you realised! (I do that, too)

I got down to 0 posts in 7 days this week.

I think I was ill last time that happened.

Not quite sure why really.

fishie · 09/10/2009 21:13

well apart from you talk too much... i think the 'threads i am on' option can be changed to show by number you are on or by a time limit.

fishie - how do I do that

Knickers0nMahead · 09/10/2009 21:16

The limit is 51 I think, I always end up losing threads because I do not think this is enough!

PeachesMcLean · 09/10/2009 21:20

And come to think of it, it's not true. I posted here on Monday. Or Tuesday. And my thingy is set at 7 days.

Hmm.

Why's that then?
