Suggestion: Forum Subscriptions

[rush99999]

My suggestion is that we take the already present ability to subscribe to individual threads and apply that concept to entire forums. For example, if someone wanted to be notified of new threads in one of the interest check forums they could go to that forum, hit the subscribe button, and be kept up to date on when new threads appear there.

Eh, I don't think it'd be needed. You can already keep an eye on the latest interest check section for anything new and/or look for yourself for any new threads that have [FRESH] next to their name, like this:

@Kuro

The same could be said for thread subscriptions, but we have them anyway.

imagine getting your e-mail filled with pings about new threads and posts in a forum

yeah no thanks

new threads and posts

@TGM

I never said anything about new posts. My suggestion is that forum subscriptions only send notifications about new threads.

I wouldn't have use for this but if the OP has a scenario for it, I won't tell him how to use the forum. It's a reasonable request. It's just that there is no activity at all on the 'would be nice' backlog from what I can see. Thus, the idea is unfortunately moot because even higher priority things probably won't happen either anytime soon. Maybe if we have the return of Mahz or something else changes to make progress, the idea can be revisited among other things.
