There are a number of folks on here who tend to post very interesting stuff, but sometimes, I miss new threads when they start them, and maybe never see them. I would like to know when they start a new thread.
Once I see a new thread, I can of course, change how I follow it if I want, but I dont want to miss any I might really like.
Is there a way to subscribe to a specific user so you get notices when they start a new thread?
Do we receive notifications on updates/posts to individually bookmarked threads? Iād think that could be more useful than tracking all posts specific to a user (though tracking a userās posts for moderation purposes would make some sense, e.g. anti-V1ru5).
Anyone can ātrackā you now just by subscribing to one of your threads now.
Im not asking to track every single post - just when someone starts a new thread. Once you get that notice, you would have the option to subscribe to that new thread or not.
I know, I just have caution from being tracked between threads so someone could carry on a pointless harassment. Thankfully, that ceased.
I think, if possible, it would be good for the user themselves to have some control over whether they want subscribers or not.
In general, I like the idea, especially if is for new threads, not just all posts. There are certainly some users here that post things I consistently like and I would like to be able to know when they post something new.
@anon32470837,
Click on the userās name. The right side button below their stats allows you to select āTopicsā. This will give you a list of their topics and you can see if there are new ones. Not tracking exactly but few users have more that 10 topics total.
Edit: I do this whenever I read something particularly well written or well thought out. Also sometimes to see if someone is a nutcase or just stoned.
