    Question Subscribing to Fellow Members

    Hey,
    I've been noticing a few people including myself not noticing their friend's new threads simply because they either were burried by newer threads or just didn't notice.

    I don't think this feature exists but I was wondering if yall (the adminstration) might consider having a subscribe button, that way when one of our friends post a new thread we could receive some kind of notification. I have no idea if this is a good idea or not, but since there are so many threads being posted in a single day, I thought something like a subscription feature would be helpful.

    What do you think?

    you have the option to do that.. Look at the first pot of that thread there's a button that says thread tools.

    click it.

    There a subscribe and an "Add thread to favorites"

    I know about that one, but with that you can only subscribe to a single thread, and I know about the other option where you can subscribe to any thread you make or reply to.

    What I guess I am trying to say is that can we subscribe to an actual member in a similar way to how you subscribe to a youtube channel.

    I think what he's getting at is subscribing to the user rather than a specific thread, and getting a notification when ever that user posts a new thread.

    I think what he means is that threads automatically be subscribed if someone on your "friends list" posts up a new thread.

    Yups, that is exactly what I meant. Sorry about not being clear tho, I'm not the most articulate person.
