I just wanted to make everyone aware of a convenient feature to let you know when people are posting the forums. There is an option to "subscribe" to any particular forum or specific topic. Once you subscribe, you will be given an email notification whenever anyone posts to your subscribed forum/topic. The email will simply contain a link to the new post, and will also contain a link to unsubscribe, should you feel the emails too invasive. The good news is that you will only receive on email until you visit the forum/topic again. That is to say, if 18 people post to your subscribed forum/topic before you get a chance to visit the forums again, you will still only receive on email reminder (not 18).
Subscribing is easy. Once you have the forum/topic to which you wish to subscribe open, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click the "subscribe" link at the left.
Once subscribed, the same link will change to "unsubscribe."
