If your main question is about saving multipage threads, ie, you've subscribed to a thread that has 10 pages and you don't want to have to save each of the 10 pages, then at the top of the thread page, under "thread tools" you'll see Show printable page or something like that. Click it and it will give you the whole page on one thread minus some of the extra crap.
