    Not sure if this is the right place...

    I regularly use the subscriptions section of my profile, it's the page I have bookmarked.

    One niggle that gets me is the fact that I have to scroll to the bottom to use the drop down, to say delete a subscription.
    Generally what happens is that I reply to a thread, and am interested in the initial response but after a while no longer have an interest (generally in busy threads) so I delete the subscription. Yes I could click unfollow in the thread, or I could click the link in the email I get, but there is a drop down on the page so why not make it a bit handier?
    There are buttons to navigate to my different pages of subscribed tabs at the top and bottom, so why not the drop down that allows me to edit my preferences?!
    I'm in no way a developer but have done a bit of html coding in the past so would imagine its fairly simple to implement as it's just duplicating the drop down at the bottom?

    Or am I nuts? :)

    edit: title should read "drop [down menu] in"

    Use the unfollow button on the thread, it's quicker. :)

    I refuse to use that button because it's not a word :p

    They included vacay as well for the people who are to lazy to use one extra syllable. That still doesn't make it a real word. :p

    We should have a whip around and buy you the full Oxford Dictionary set, just so we can watch you sit down and cry at what counts as a word in our language.... ;)
