I think the forum should have a follow button, that way you can choose to get a notification when specific people post. (i.e. subscribe to users) would such a thing be possible?

You can already subscribe to updates in a thread. Why would you want an email every time someone (specific) posted?

How about being able to mark specific threads as favorites or something like that where you can get easy access to just see those threads?

And even more importantly instead of option to go to last post how about being able to go to last read post like you can do in tapatalk?

(someone please let me know if there already is a way to do these things and I'm just missing it)

For me (definitely in mobile mode) it goes to last read post.

Do you click on "new"
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

+1. Its enough getting all the email notifications from threads u posted in (even though i could opt out) and I don't think there's anyone that interested in reading every post of that specific person in every topic and thread (sorry asherO :p) CMIIR

 :-[ see that you learn something new every day (and i got todays out of the way pretty early  ;) )

so how about then is there any way to ignore certain threads so that they won't show up when you click on "show unread posts" ?

or at least to be able to mark specific threads as "read" from that page instead of the option of marking all messages as read?

I guess we can put that speculation to rest then  ;)

wiki

Quote
AsherO is one of the most prominent members on the DansDeals forums. The number of his posts are exceeded only by the founder of Dansdeals himself - Daniel Eleff. It is unclear who exactly AsherO is, although recent speculations suggest that it is possible to figure it out from a Dansdeals DO picture. Not only does AsherO hold the record for the most posts from a non-admin member, he also holds records in the following areas: most posts per day, fastest past of growth, and reading the most posts. some speculate that he reads every single post! It is uncertain how often AsherO goes on vacation, as he posts from vacation too; it is certain that after a short amount of time without any posts, threads such as "where is AsherO" will appear.

a bookmark in your browser would probably work for most cases

Why would that work better than a link? (especially when on a phone)

Not really.
adding a link to the main site should only take a few seconds.
