i checked the mod since a user had problems with it. it's nothing big - just the notifications again.

you have absolutly not thought of them while doing the mod

if you splice a thread for which someone registered to get notifications you don't move them to the .mail file of the other thread. also the old one will not be deleted.

i dont mind how to proceed with splitted threads... it can be left as it is.

It's very tricky working out exactly who should be notified of what when spliting or splicing threads, because there are two threads with two sets of people to notify. If you are removing off-topic replies to a new thread then you don't need to notify anyone. If you are moving posts to an existing thread, then you could notify the users watching the destination thread. But these are not new posts, merely ones which have been moved, and the users could have seen them anyway. The only time when notifications really becomes an issue is if you are moving all the posts of one thread to a second thread. But then if the user was interested in that second thread, they should already be being notified of it!

You see, this is not straight forward. Which is why I left the notifications where they were!

Thanks for letting me know, I'll check it out later, and yes if you are moving all the posts from one thread to another (without leaving a "moved to..." notice) then all the support files should be deleted..

Yes, that's the bug Dummy Proof spotted.

As for the notification of thread A being moved to thread B when all the posts are moved over, I thought leaving it as it was was safest, without the risk of sending lots of unwanted emails to people.
