    i'm suscribed to so many forums and posting so much that i'm lossing track of my posts... i forget to check it, so people answer them and i never answer back

    there is the "email when someone reply" feature, but you end up with thousends of emails on your inbox

    how do you keep track of your forum posts?

    This and syndic8 are the only two forums I participate in so it's easy to keep up.

    I just use the email feature, I have a rule in Outlook that sorts all forum emails into their own folder.

    WP, Here and every now and then, I like to go to the BoG ;)

    The new posts button is both my savior and destruction.

    I do keep track by using the advanced search option..

    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/search.php

    I give my user name 'maverick' and select option 'Find threads started by user'. Result would be my threads started, and then even if I lose track for few days, I reply to those posts whenever I am free or I find something related to those posts.

    If you get a life then you don't have to keep track of your forum posts. Forums are for us nerds anyways...

    You can set your preferences to subscribe you automatically to any thread that you post on. Then when you want to visit that forum just check your "User CP" which will show the subscribed threads that have new posts.

    I get tired of receiving email replies so this is how I do it.

    I'm not a nerd!!

    Actually I think DP has turned me into a little bit of one. :eek:

    The only way out is for DP to be gone. I dont think that will ever happen if Shawn's got anything to do with it.

    Newbies,don't sign up to this subscription of nerdism, save yourselves while there's still time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    revenge of the nerds..

    I actually were glasses and when I was a kid back in 82 we had no money to replace my glasses. They broke down the middle so of course I had to tape my glasses. Then the side broke too!! I was the ultimate nerd in 6th grade, along with being small and skinny, guess who the jocks picked on??

    I am ready for those same jocks now, but being they are 34 and fat, they can't even get in the ring with me LOL.. A friend of mine (jock he he ) hates it when we go paint balling, cause he says if I turn sideways he can't see me. If he turns sideways I have a bigger target! So much for protien drinks eh?

    Why is it that all the cool people in highschool turn out to be 34, work as ushers in the local cinema and still live with their mom and dad. And the nerds all turn out to be big hot shots, grow into themselves & become good looking.

    I think that's whats called Karma.
