Subscribing to Message Board Topics

Here's a feature request for the Message Boards: It would be nice to be able to subscribe to a thread, and get Email notification when someone replies to it. This is a pretty standard feature on many message boards out there on the web, and it would save me the trouble of having to sporadically go back to the boards and dig around for a thread I replied to, just to see if someone else had responded yet.

If this feature already exists and I'm just too dumb to figure out how to use it, please let me know.

RE: Subscribing to Message Board Topics

This is a feature that has been asked for in the past and it unfortunately doesn't exist today. If Epinions is compiling a list of features for Forums 2.0, subscriptions and e-mail notifications should be on it.

Thanks for the thoughtful suggestion. With all the work that needs to be done on Epinions, improvements to the forums are down the list a ways. However, don't let that stop you from thinking of other useful features.

Yeah, I kinda figured that sort of thing wasn't a priority at the moment (bug reports always trump feature requests), but I also figured it was better to get it in the queue so that maybe we could have it a few years down on the road... I do plan on still being around!

A full-featured message board is something both Yoel and I would like to see in 2009.
