My subs is highlighting yellow for unknown reason. How turn off?

7. You can turn it off by removing all your subscriptions

The My Subs tab lights up whenever a new thread is posted in a forum you are subscribed to, or whenever a thread is posted by a person you are subscribed to. If you are not subscribed to any forums or people, the tab will not light up.

The "Filter" options in the right column of the Subscriptions page do not affect the My Subs tab. They are for filtering your current view of the Subscriptions page. So for example, if you want to quickly see recent threads by a single person you're subscribed to, you would only check the box next to that person's name, and then only that person's threads will be displayed on the Subscriptions page. But that filter only applies to the entries on the Subscriptions page, it has no other effect.

You can remove subscriptions by either going to the forum you are subscribed to, or going to the profile of a person you are subscribed to, and clicking the "Unsubscribe" button at the top. You can reach those forums and people by clicking the links in the right column of the Subscriptions page.
