Mods/Admins...lights are on but nobodys home... Support Apolyton

When choosing a forum to go to I used to check the lights to see which forum has a new post. Recently some seem to be stuck in the on position. When I go to the forum there are no new posts since my last visit.

Is there a problem?

Suffering from ads?

Actually, cancel that.
It doesn't help at all...

Ok, own up. How many other people though this was going to be another shortlived flamefest on the qualities of the moderation?

I rather prefer to see all bulbs turned off once I read all inside a specific forum!
I have to memorize the time I left it, and only go back to it when the time is different from the last time.

This is one of the major flaws I see at Apolyton.
The other is being flooded with mails that tell me that there's a new post in a thread I subscribed. One would suffice! I usually get around 100 mails from Apolyton every day, sometimes 10 are just about one specific thread has a new post! This is really annoying!

I would like to be able to subscribe to a thread but don't get any email notifications, I don't suppose that's possible? Just a list of threads in my control panel that I could reach with one click, without having to navigate through the whole forum structure. Of course, I could divert the notification mails to a spam-address but I regularly get PM notifications and Apolyton emails on the same address as well (and the newsletter, although it has been a while since the last one), I wouldn't want to miss any of that...
