Maybe it's just me.
When I create a thread (and subscribe to it,) or subscribe to one, I expect that it will show in MyFlyerTalk until I choose to unsubscribe. This is not what is happening.
I create and subscribe to threads, but when I go to MyFlyerTalk, I get the message "There are no subscribed threads to display in this folder for this time period." in the New Subscribed Threads area.
Is my expectation incorrect that I should see all of my subscribed threads in this area, or is this just another bug.

I noticed this too early on, that it comes and goes. The trick is the threads won't show on your main MyFlyerTalk page unless they have new posts in them. In other words, it's even smarter than you thought.
If you see no threads in that section, it means there are no new posts in those threads since your last login. Now, with the erratic functioning of the site right now, this can sometimes be a problem, because it may think you logged in on one of those times where you actually never got the site to come up. (At least, it seems to have done that to me once or twice.) But that is what is happening and why you have zero threads there.
If you want to see all the threads you've subsribed to to view or remove them or whatever, you need to click on the "View all Subscribed Threads" link.
Note that the behavior of Subscribed Threads is not the same as Subscribed Forums. The forums will show on your main MyFT page regardless of when the last post was.
