Auto-Subscribe

One thing that I would like to see on the forums would be the option to automatically subscribe to a topic when you reply to it. I rely on email notifications to keep track of threads I'm helping people on, and when I forget to subscribe (which is pretty frequently), I just never see the thread again. It's a shame.
If nothing else, everyone else is doing it

I thought exactly the same today as I searched for my "open" threads that I've already replied on... That'd be a cool feature. Shouldn't be more than 5min of work...

Ok, just checked the source of the Forum... If you hit the "Post a Reply" Link after the last answer, you get to the advanced reply-form. There's a checkbox which states "Subscribe to this Topic"... Thats what we've been searching for, isn't it. It's just not in the Quick-reply form. But I guess thats ok the way it is. Sorry....

[x] Subscribe to this topic

:-P

Yea, that works, I just wish there was an option in your profile to automagically subscribe to topics you reply to, IE that box is checked by default.

What's wrong with the "Show your posts" link at the bottom? I totally rely on that.

What? OOH!
That's like... pure genius. It's a good thing I've never bothered to read the page to the bottom...

Thanks!
