Default Bookmarking threads

Is there a way to bookmark threads that I have posted to, so I can find the replies without searching all thru creation? I can't find half the threads I read & posted to before.

You should be able to bookmark the url the same way you bookmark any other webpage.

An easier way to do it is to look under "Quick Links" (On blue bar between Search and Log Out) and select "Suscribed Threads". Any time you reply to a thread, it is automatically added to a list of "Suscribed Threads". There probably is a way to suscribe to a thread without posting to the thread.

Above the first post for each thread there is a drop-down menu called "Thread Tools." "Subscribe to thread" is one of the options.

Also note that a proper thread link should look like this:

Bookmarking threads

Anything else will point to a specific post in the thread. Actually, this might be what you want:

Bookmarking threads

since it will go to the first post in the thread that you haven't seen already.

Thanks Mr. Spock. I just have to say that back in 1968 when Star Trek first came out, I had a huge crush on you (Mr. Spock that is). In fact, Mr. Spock has always been a role model of mine. Being cool and Logical is a good way to be!

I always endeavor to behave in a manner worthy of emulation. It's the only logical thing to do!
