Data Sphere

Data-Sphere now has more sections than it knows what to do with and some of them are of no interest to me. Especially with the addition of the new regional subforums, I don't much care what happens in a region other than where I belong. Yet the icons still show that a new post was made in the regional subforum and I waste my time clicking on there only to find out the update was on the polish subforum for example.

So is it possible to ignore some sections completely so that it doesn't show the updated icon or show new messages in those sections I choose?

Unfortunately no. Not to that extent. We've worked to not let Polish, Scandinavian, Dutch etc threads show up in the feed for people who don't want to see them, but activity will still be shown on the General Board Section.
