flowerpot132 Active member Oct 4, 2016 #3 Thanks Brogan. When a user posts do they automatically watch the thread? This has happened in this case on our forum. When I test... I (user) posts, I (admin) delete post, user is watching thread. I (user) never clicked to watch the thread. Upvote 0 Downvote
