That out of the way, how do subscribe to a thread?
Ive been through the FAQs and the UCP itself, and cant figure it out. I am basically an idiot, but I didn't think I was this bad.

If you can help me, that would be great. Thanks, and happy New Year.

Honestly, my brain likes to see such things at the BOTTOM of the page rather than at the top. I decide to subscribe only after reading the discussion, not before.

Under the window where you type your post is two buttons you're familiar with - "Submit Reply" and "preview post." Under that is a section labelled "Additional Options." In that area is a drop down list for thread subscriptions.

Very true.
I wonder why its at the top?
Either way, thanks a bunch!

Wow.
I never noticed that either.

I only have access to a computer while I am at work, therefore I reply as quickly as possible, and go back to doing whatever it was I was doing before.

Thank you for the info.
