Poll: Would you like a feature that shows you answers on your posts since your last visit?
Yes! It's very useful to be updated fast about the topics I last wrote in and I was interested on in one click.
No! I don't think I will use that feature, I rather search trough the forum and find my lastest posts back that way

Why? I think it is already short enough tough :) That's the way it's already displayed in Lastest Posts so I think it's best that way
But that is my opinion!

Oh right, I assumed you guys with the screenies thought the line of text looked too large to fit where you put it, or just didn't look 'right'. Never mind then :P

Note that the "show threads you posted in" page does not list all the threads you subcribed to. So even adding that link won't always show all the "new" replies either (not to mention if you have hidden a specifc forum, you wont see any new reply to that forum anyways).

Only the email notification, which you can enable in your User CP by selecting "Use Email Notification by default:" in your Profile Options, will notify you about all new posts.

And to add yet another link in the Latest Post page to show all your subcribed to threads would be too much IMO...

------

Tip for people who want direct links to specific forum pages:
Add custom buttons in your browser...

In every browser you have the posseblity to add custom buttons, this is very handy for such things.

Big benfit of this is you can customize it to contain and look like whatever you want, without the need of asking/suggesting to add links to certain forum pages for your convenience. Also, you don't even have to be on the forum to quickly go to a page (if you have enabled "Remember me" in your Profile Options). And you don't need to constantly scroll up or down to get to the links.

eg: in my browser I have a toolbar with "Latest Posts", "Users Online" and the "Basic Search Page".

------

All the available pages in this context are:
* Your Thread Subscriptions
* Your Forum Subscriptions
* Your Favorite threads
* Latest Posts Page (all threads)
* Latest Posts Page (threads you posted in)
* Latest Posts Page (all unanswered threads)

IE: Add something to the links bar and then tell your browser to show it ...
Just add the page to your favorites (ctrl+d) then drag it to the links folder or onto the links toolbar

FF: Press ctrl+d while on a page. Click the drop down list and click "bookmarks toolbar folder". Click ok. Then tell firefox to display the toolbar if you havent alredy by right clicking in some open space beside the other buttons on the top and then select "bookmarks toolbar"

Note: To enable the links toolbar in IE, the procedure is the same.

IE = Internet Explorer
FF = FireFox

(For anyone who didnt know ;))

I edited the image to make it how Animal suggested.

I think that it would just be better to see new replies to your threads through email or if you just want to see the threads you posted in, make a bookmard or do it the same why you currently do.
