Hi Peter
I think we are talking of different things
the Threads are the various discussions within each separate forum, of which the NeuroTalk community is made up
people dont play games on the threads related to say discussions of meds. There is a specific subforum for games in our Lighter Side Forum, but we dont object to a thread or two in the medical forums being game orientated as we know that folks sometimes need that
again as example
in the CFS & Fibro Forum
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum12.html
there is only *one* thread for games..
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread2151.html
..the other threads there are related to the illness and when they arent, they are labelled OT in their title to let members know these are OFF TOPIC
You can "unsubscribe" from *any* specific thread so as to not get alerts of new posts on threads that you have no interest in, and so by unsubscribing from any of the game threads, you will no longer get notifications of new posts to them
hope that helps
Cheri
ps we do appreciate your input
