Watched threads" tab sort order

by Orion Elenzil · in Site Feedback · 08/25/2008 (12:04 pm) · 2 replies

I'm currently watching about a zillion threads.
the "watched threads" tab in the what's new page shows 12 of them, but sorted by.. i'm going to guess here the date i started watching them, from earliest to more recent.

how about sorting that by date of most recent comment, most recent to older ?

or at least by date i started watching them, most recent to older.

I've wondered this for a while, too. I'm wondering if it only shows watched threads with unread posts in them.

I don't think so. in some of them, the last post is by me! .. and they stay in the list.

they might be sorted by thread creation date, earliest to later.

let's see, here's the creation dates from my list:
20020401
20030327
20030422
20030622
20030917
20031223
20040721
20040723
20040810
20040917
20041001
20041003

so it might be that,
but i'm more inclined to think it's the date you first started watching the thread,
because if i unwatch something (and wait a while) and then re-watch it, it doesn't go back in the list.
