now i dont know if its possible , but ill put the question forward anyway


do you when browsing the site think oh thats interesting im doing my brakes soon, or id like to look into green lanes or maps

so you read a post its interesting and you know you will need the information soon... but you cant save that thread in a favorites section .

imagine how handy it would be
no more spending hours looking something up that you know is there but you just cant find it


so if its possible, who wants a my favorite thread button

go to the top of the browser page, click on FILE and then down to SAVE PAGE AS and it saves the entire page to your PC as an HTML file. In idiot terms that means its permanently on your PC for you to view whenever you like. It just opens looking exactly the way it did when you saved it....

You can use the subscribe to thread option to add it to your list of subscribed to threads.

I just found mine was set to automatcally subscibe to any thread i post in or start so have a big list to delete.

You can also set options so it emails you when a thread is updated.

basically you are set to save every thread you respond to, on your subscribed threads.
unfortunately you have to delete all of them 800 nearly for me

then set your subscribed threads to do not subscribe ( or something similar)

that will stop it subscribing to threads you reply to

but you still have that option to subscribe when you do reply to a thread you want to keep
