Favorites vs. Subscriptions (can never find the former)

O.k.

If I reply to a thread, or author a thead, I am automatically subscribed to it.

However if I am reading along, and decide I dont want to reply, but want it in my favorites...I can click "subscribe" or "favorites".

Now if I click "subscribe" I can easily find it by going to myATS favorites.
However if I click on "favorites" I cant find it. (I only see it when it shows control panel and shows my favorites there after immediately adding it...after that, I have no idea how to get back.) It is no under myATS favorites, although forum favorites is, and subscriptions.

Some may argue why have "favorites" and subscriptions.
Well, if I could ever find my "favorites" again, it makes sense as subscriptions tend to get long as they include what you author and reply to. (yes you can edit this down...but favorites is a nice alternative to supplementes subscriptons.

But my question is...where is it? I know Im not the only person having the issue, as I saw someone else bring it up.

I'm sure SO will get around to providing a link button to your favourites list during the ongoing Dark Matter project, but for now you can bookmark this link:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

Hope this helps.

wasnt sure if I was over looking something, thats why I asked.

I recently forgot how to get to my favorites, then rembmered this:
If you go to your myATS page
www.abovetopsecret.com...

You will see this:

Your Subscribed Threads (manage)

above your subsribed threads on the right.
If you click on "manage" you will go to this page
www.abovetopsecret.com...
which is the control panel page--it has a link to your favorites.

The direct link method is much better, imo.

totally cool...i was wondering how you could actually go about finding it through the links on the site. (Kind of not to direct in its current layout, but i suppose it may to change)
