Subscribing to threads

'Watching' is always my first port of call when coming onto GN, where I place any thread I am interested in keeping up with, followed by 'Unanswered' where I try to reply if it has been there for some time (feel sorry for the poster), then 'Last Hour and 'Last Day'.
I find the bookmark very useful as well, saves trawling through a long thread to find the post I last read.

I've never noticed the 'watching' rectangle blush...

Thanks everyone for replying so quickly.

Have found the headings you mentioned, hadn't noticed them before.

Occasionally, previously, I've commented on a thread then been unable to find it later to see whether others' have posted.

This will help lots, thank you.

Click the "Watch this Thread" rectangle at the top right of the thread and then you can choose the "Watching" option to find threads you replied to and want to follow.

If you click on 'I'm On' at the top that will show the threads you're on.

Just wondering whether there is a way to subscribe to threads you are interested in.

For instance, if replying to a comment on a thread, is there a facility where you can opt in to be automatically emailed when another user adds a comment?

Occasionally I've posted a comment, and when returning have found it difficult to find the original thread.

Thank you
