Pretty silly question, I know.

As far as I can see, the only real way to keep an eye on what you've posted on is by having the memory of an Elephant and remember all of the thread's you've posted on. Unless I'm completely missing something.

Wish that the forums somehow emailed you, like other forums, telling you that a thread you've posted on has new posts or your own thread has new replies.

Thanks! ^^

I'll kill this thread when the answer has become clear.

Add the thread into favourites on the browser

Or if you're using chrome, you can right click on the tab and select "pin tab".

You're welcome.

Put the link in favourites and check on it sometimes, that's what I do there's probably another way but I'm noob so that is what I do :/

I believe you can set up a RSS feed.

@Deltikon&Skenderbeu - Both great ideas! I've set up a favorites folder and have just gone through all of what I've posted on and added it there. May have to delete 'em when I've lost interest in them and/or they die.

@Trying - CSS Feed? By that, do you mean the RSS Feed? I don't really use RSS but I know of it. How would I go about setting that up?

Most of the time when I post,

Most of the time when I post, i'll check back on page 3 in an hour or so since any legit thread usually gets pushed that far due to pointless complaints and rage :) Bookmark page 3!

Yeah RSS feed. Just click the little icon on the bottom and subscribe. I'm not sure if it lets you track specific threads though.

I don't

I usually just post then never read replies or reply again.

With me...

I write incomprehensible words on a sheet of paper I put in my laptop before I 'go to sleep' and then the next morning I wake up, see the sheet and wonder why I don't type the things on a word document. After that I proceed to scroll through the posts in General Discussion, Suggestions, and occasionally Bazaar

@Blueflood - Thanks for your reply Blueflood! Seems like a good idea!

@Trying - Thanks! I think I'll just have to stick with the favorites thing until they, meaning OOO, decide to make changes to the forums allowing users to be alerted via email when someone has replied to a thread they've either subscribed to or created. Though I do appreciate the reply.

@Eeks - What if you were expressing an opinion and you wanted views-- Yeah, no point continuing. You probably won't reply to this one anyway. ;)

@Lightyourfire - Ahaha! I see! Great! Thanks for your response.

Graveyard, anyone? I think the end is nigh for this thread.

Graveyard. Where threads fear to tread...
