At 20 threads per page, that equates to 16,300 thread you watch.

Maybe you can ask for a "Most Watched Threads" badge. Or, maybe, just maybe, you have poor watched threads management skills. LOL!
I have answered around 1620 threads.. half of which are probably the unanswered threads.. Speaking of which I need to go clear!
 
Yeah, I went through and cleared out threads with no responses in over 2 years the other day... Most of these in my watch list are still at least semi-frequently active.
I do the same weekly. It took several days of cull for twenty minutes or so, do something constructive for forty minutes or so. Tedious but I culled nearly two hundred pages of 'dead' threads the first time through. Now I cull maybe ten or twenty threads a week. I don't cull all dead threads though as there have been some threads that I contributed to, or started, that popped up again after several years so I only cull dead welcome threads, congratulations for this or that threads and threads that became contentious and counterproductive.

Live Sales, Welcome, etc were the first to go from my watched list.

I've never done a live sale. I have enough trouble trying to decide to buy something at a store to get involved in split-second decisions on major purchases (for me anything over $25.00 is considered a major purchase--life changes when you transition to a fixed income lifestyle).

I'm the same way and I stay away from auctions as well because I get too competitive...
