This refers to the confirmation dialog box discussed in this thread from the Implemented forum.
The text displayed by this confirmation dialog currently reads as follows:

Perhaps it would be better if this space were used to make sure the user is aware of the results of this operation. I'd like to suggest that the above text be changed to something the following:
This should remind users that unwatching a thread will do more than just remove it from the "Watched Threads" page.
