  • Question about new forums - How do I find my posts?

    With all the new forums , I'm finding it impossible to find my posts and see if anybody replied. On the old boards , all you had to do was scroll down and look for your name. This new system doesn't provide email notification , and if 'subscribing' to a post does anything , I can't figure it out. With all these bells and whistles , isn't there a way to give users a chance to do this? Would it be possible to click on your name in a list of forum sbscribers and be taken to your posts to see if anyone responded? The only thing I can think of is to write down the threads I've posted to so I can reference the list. Frankly , this is alot more trouble then just not posting. I really don't get what's so great about these forums. It used to be that with a quick scroll I could find everything I wanted to read. Now it's multiple clicking back and forth , and trying to remeber which threads. If a feature such as I described above isn't possible , is there some tip others can pass along for how they remember where to look? Thanks for any help.

        There is a button at the top of the page that says "user cp" click on it. It lists all of your subscribed threads.

          Neil - Thanks again

          I didn't have a chance to post to thank you for your last reply. While I was a little frustrated , I'll always be the first to say HQ always comes through.
