Default category watch state changed
-
Previously, all new topics in all categories were watched by default for all users. This is now changed so that you will only see "Unread" new topics if you watch category manually. Any posts you make will automatically be watched for new replies. This is more how a normal forum behaves, but it does mean that you should go more "out of your way" to find new topics.
You can manually watch a category for new topics by using the button above. Also, the Recents page will still show everything (unless you also change those settings).
