I tend to hit all of my ebots to see what was happening, then delete the ebots after I'v read the days posts. More ebots would just give me a bit more browsing time, which has it's ggod and bad points. And a few more ebots to kill, which is a non problem. Over all I like the idea. When the "war" was going on, I found myself posting in a lot of threads that I would normally have read and left uncommented, just so I could keep up to date on all of the arguments. It worked, but it made me a lot more visible than I cared for, in the situation... Not that a few flames generally bug me. I find that I miss a lot of stuff from the Bryce forum because it gets buried under new posts before I can get to it. When we get more traffic, the same will happen at hardware and technical. This idea would eliminate missing interesting bryce posts or important questions that may be driving someone nutz. (Hardware probs can do that in a hurry) Would unclicking the "email on post" still disable recieving ebots from that particular forum? That would work for turning off the ones you dont need.
