Re: [libreoffice-users] UNSUBSCRIBE

Hi :)
It sounds as though you haven't tried Launchpad forums.  You might have to register to really see 
what i mean
https://launchpad.net/
Click on one of the projects down the right-hand-side.  Then somewhere on the right click on 
"Answers" to get to their forums.

I agree that many forums are not set-up like that.  
Regards from
Tom :)

It really isn't the same.  You've got to go to the forum to see what the 
conversation is to then subscribe to a thread.  All the time.  And even if it 
does email you about messages in a thread, you have to go to the forum to reply, 
and sometimes to view the message too.  A mailing list delivers it all to your 
own mailbox and then you can have your evil way with it there.

I'm not arguing against changing to forums (although I'm not very keen on them 
for the same reasons that Brad puts forward), I'm just reiterating that they 
REALLY are very different in the way one interacts with them.
