How do I set it so I get email notifications for forum posts? I'd like to be notified when someone posts in a thread that I'm reading/posting in.

There is no way to do this (that I know of). You might make a favorites or bookmark folder called 'watching' and put links to your threads there. All you can do is check in and see if someone has posted.

Firefox has a greasemonkey script that makes bookmarks for you to follow, and boldens a thread once someone posts after you did. That doesn't mean they were answering you, but it lets you know if you were the last person to read or post there.

That is the one thing I would really like to see implemented.
I remember asking about it when I first came here - I was surprised it wasn't an option.

Yeah, me too. Subcriptions are common in the message board I've been to. It's a pain, and so far the only thing I dislike about this site.
