The new "Following > All Changes" log needs to have the "Hide changes that I have made" filter added

Kevin Augustus Long said: With the old Watch log we could easily filter out the changes that we personally had made. Please restore that functionality. It is much too cumbersome to scroll through all the changes I have made to spot the ones made by others.

Watching or Following is essential to discover and correct the incorrect changes made by contributors (I am sure that I have goofed a few times myself...).

Please add a filter to allow us to exclude the changes that we have made.

BTW it would be great to be able to "search" the new "Following > All Changes" log by contributor, by date, etc.

Cheers.

Jeff Wiseman said: It's no big deal :-) When people start a new topic, sometimes GetSatisfaction.com can't find things obviously related. As a result, when changes are made on the website, there can be a flurry of similar suggestions show up on the forum as separate topics. Usually someone will just add a note to them as I did above, and discussion on that specific topic thread will stop when anyone looking at it sees that there is a better topic thread to examine.

Also, another reason that you may have missed it, is because overtime someone adds a reply or comment to a topic, it keeps getting "bumped" back to the top of the forum where everyone sees it. In this case, an employee posted a note answering everyone's question and as a result no one else added any more discussion, so the topic started sinking into the history of the forum, where if you don't go digging for it, you won't see it.

Finding pre-existing related topics in this forum can be a bit of a challenge.
