PSA: use bookmarks to make your own "My Posts"

[speckledfrog]

If you bookmark a thread (at upper/lower left of each thread) you can find it easily again under your profile.

You can also set each bookmark to notify you via PM or email when a new post is added, if you'd like.

Speaking of PMs, you can also set your PMs to have a pop-up box notify you when you get a new one. Click up at the very top of the screen on your "you have X messages" link and then click the red toolbox to change your preferences.

Oh, the humanity!

I set my preferences for my PMs, but how can I set it so that I get PMed/emailed when a new post is added to a bookmarked thread?

Go to your profile and then to bookmarks. On the right side of the bookmark box is "manage bookmarks."
