Highlighting a joke thread means forcing anyone who is annoyed/doesn't care to click on it and unfollow it, and a lot of the time the unfollow thing doesn't even work. I've tried unfollowing a joke thread I found unfunny twice and I'm getting notified.

Feel free to disagree with me and choose whatever vote you want, but I'm explaining that it isn't just as simple as clicking a back button. Sorry if I seemed rude. Actually, it does not do that. Highlighting a thread, ANY thread, will NOT make it give you any further notifications from it if you mark it as read without following or replying to it.

You're clearly mistaking this for a glitch in wikia that gives you notifications from all threads on a specific board, regardless of whether or not it was highlighted or if you were participating in or following the threads. In my case, it's with the roleplay board. In your case, it's obviously the fun and games board. Ohh, okay, my mistake. I didn't know that glitch was a thing. I'll edit my post. A correction I must make to your edit: You don't have to click on the highlighted thread to mark it as read. There's a "mark all as read" button in the notifications. My point is that it forces people to look at it, which is unfair to a lot of people here who don't like the joke threads and are affected by the rule stating not to complain about them. That rule was made because people were actively going into the board and starting drama there, but again, it's not fair if the threads are shoved in people's faces.

I don't really mind the threads very much but for a lot of people, it's spammy and annoying to be notified about something unimportant like that all the time.

I'm not going to bother editing it because my point still stands: it forces people to look at it, and it is annoying for some.
