Im trying to follow various stories, but i keep getting threads showing up in my 'unread' section of watched threads because someone added to the discussion. I don't want to hear about the discussion, I want to read the story. Would it be possible to adjust the 'watch' function to only activate for a new threadmark in the main line? Maybe a new function if necessary?

Click to expand...
Click to shrink...
seeing as 'watch thread' is how authors keep track of their threads, and there are presumably other people who want to see everything in the thread as well, lets go with the 'new function' option.

When watching threads, you want to make sure to select "and receive OP email notifications" as that will get you only notifications from the one who started the thread and thus, the one who is in theory the writer of the fic.

There is also... this option under What's New
