Forum Suggestion: Thread Alerts by Jhrono on 04-19-2005 at 10:09 PM

Here i am giving dz some work :refuck: :D...

Anyway here's my suggestion, like in some threads you sometimes need users to come and visit them, so you could have a thread alert button in the profile of each user to alert them of thread X or Z...

Rules i Invented :

- No more then 3 Alerts per day
- No more then 2 Alerts per user per day

and it could be a bar like this...
(woow dodgy photoshop skills...)

That could be a good idea. But i think there should be a post count limit so that new people dont alert their thread to lots of people pointlessly. So limit it like the rep system.

This would be a great idea, rather then the current Email system. I think DZ should really do this (y)

Sorry, but I don't see the point of a new feature for that. I can see it being used if you need help with a plug-in and you want the plug-in author to view your thread, but why not send a quick PM: "hey, could you please read this thread? http:// ..."? :-/

Err, if I understand correctly, this is a completely different thing. :s

Yes, I think i've heard of that feature before..

Perhaps it could also be an option in MyBB? "Email Notification", "Thread Subscriptions", "Subscribe"
