Its so annoying because not every thread you want to watch and recieve a notification for every post that gets posted there, cuz u still get notifications if someone replies to your posts in that thread which u do actually want notifications for, without having to watch that thread. The only times where it should auto-watch a thread is if the thread is one that you made yourself. otherwise it should just be an option u choose to toggle if wanted. and for game threads, there should be an option to watch it but only get notifications for updates on the game not every message.
