How do you keep track?

Maynehead

Hi, forum newbie here.

Just wondering how you guys keep track of threads that you've posted in? In other forums when you post in a thread it gets added to your "subscribed threads" section, but on here it only tracks threads that you started.

How do you keep up to date with threads you've posted in across the boards?

Boredom mainly

Click the star top right or on the front page by the thread.

You can subscribe to a thread, and also set it to get alerts each time someone posts in that....or when someone quotes you. Edit your profile and look at the options.

I wouldn't bother, you'll soon get as sick as fck of the notifications.

Ah, so you have to bookmark manually... I'll have to get into the habit of doing that!

Thanks all.

Mainly when people tag my name using the @ symbol.

As I'm a decrepit old bastard, keeping track of things is difficult these days.

Get an iPhone/smartphone.

If I had to use a computer I wouldn't even log in once a day.

Using my phone I just browse the forum throughout the day regularly.

The notifications tell you all you need to know....

You can also go to your profile page and check threads through the (my) "Comments" feature, and use that as a starting point.
