Similar issue...
When one subscribes to a thread and there are new posts to that thread, that thread appears at the top of the "my flyertalk" page but the unsubscribe link is directly below the thread link and can lead to fat -fingering an accidental unsubscribe
Any chance the unsubscribe link can be moved over to the right as you did with the forum links?
edited to add: And the "reply" link as well as it's right next to the unsubscribe link

The problem with these kind of fixes is that they will likely keep reverting every time there is a change to the site, because the locations of the links are all core VB.
Also, can you screen shot the issues for me? I don't see it. Thanks.

Not unusual. So, you make a list of stuff that needs to be manually redone each time, and someone is responsible for doing it and someone is responsible for checking it. Or, you set up a script and automate it.

For now, we have no solution to this. I will ask the developers to redesign this in some future release, but it would be a while if ever. Ideally you would use the mobile skin for mobile devices, though Subscribed Threads is not there. Again, maybe a future release. Sorry.
