We just deployed a feature update! The biggest additions in this update are the new subscriptions and the new advanced reply page.
Subscriptions
When you view a build or a forum thread, near the top you will see a button or link that says "subscribe". Click to subscribe, and when you are offline you will get an email notification when someone replies to it! You will only get one email notification for each thread or build, until you log in again, so your email won't get spammed by every comment. You can turn off email notifications in your profile. We will be adding more options and features to this soon, so keep an eye out!
Advanced Reply
The reply box at the bottom of each thread is a "quick post" box with no controls. If you click the "More Options" button you will be taken to an advanced page with bbcode controls, preview and more. We will be expanding on this later, but for now it is a handy way to compose a more complicated post! Along with this feature, you can click "Quote" on anyone's post and it will take you straight to this advanced reply page. The create thread page received a similar treatment.
And More!
There are a number of other smaller things tucked into this update. One of them is forum signatures. You can now compose your signature on your edit profile page and it will appear underneath all your forum posts. There is much more to come, we are already tapping away at the next update. Let us know here what you think of these changes!
Enjoy!
