But I have not found an easy way to subscribe tthreadsds yet. I also kind of miss the new posts feature that was in Bob's forum where it would show you all the new posts since the last time you visited.
If there could be a wayreceiveieve an email when new posts are sent to a thread you've subscribed to, I'd really appreciate it. Having emails sent to me was the only real way I was ever drawn into Bob's forum. I rarely will bother to visit a forum unless I get an email drawing me in for some reason.
Just a request, or again, if I'm just missing the buttons or tools how how to do this and it's already hear, please forgive my ladisciplineipline to search it out.
Thanks,

If you look at the footer at the very bottom of the page, you will see a "Subscribe Topic" link - that will send you an email when the topic has changes.
As for New Posts, once you are in the forums, the topics with new messages should light in red. When you are in a topic, there is a "first unread message" link at the top right of the listing that will take you to the first message you haven't seen.
I also believe if you click on the name of the forum in the navigation on the top, it brings you to an alternate view where it shows all the messages across all topics that are new in the forum. I don't use that feature, since I like to view everything by topic in case I need context. So you shouldn't need the feature either
