Okay this forum is sucking me in with its suck power vortex. So now I am posting all over the damn place and I can't keep up with checking for replies to my posts. I don't have time to check every thread. Yes I know there's a little yellow folder icon for threads in which I've posted, and the "New" thing signifies -- imagine this -- new posts in that thread, but I still wish there was a link for "See all posts replying to posts you've made since last visit" -- there is actually another board I frequent (non-arcade) and it has such a link. Is there something like that here, am I missing it? The vortex has already sucked in my pants, I must go in to retrieve them

Man I have witnessed Chad in full swing. On a few days he has come close to 200 posts.
The dude is a lean mean posting machine.

You're getting your terms mixed up. That suckage you're experiencing is called "Stingray". He's the one who sucks.
In order to keep up, you'll probably have to get an assistant. That assistant will be able to either find your glasses for the "show new replies to your posts" link up on top, or point it out for you and perhaps even show you how to click it. To keep up with the rest, download Firefox. After it's installed, middle-click any "new" icons to be taken to the newest posts you haven't read.
You may have to head over to rampy's site, www.byopvr.com, to build a PVR to store all the threads you want to read. Once you've got that set up, buy a PDA, hotsync your PDA to your PVR ASAP so you can RSVP PDQ. When you've finally caught up, whatever Stingray says, DON'T eat whatever he gives you without making him try it first.
You'll wake up a month later and wonder how you got so far behind again. That, and what happened to your pants. But I've said too much already ;D

Wow....that's useful. I'll have to keep that in mind. The only icon I've ever known was the sticky, because it's so obvious what the thumbtack means (or maybe I just noticed that those never moved and put two and two together. And I have like 3000 posts :)

I must be totally blind, I still do not see a 'show new replies to your posts' link "on top" as a couple of you have pointed out... but I'll keep looking... Thanks for the direct link sirwoogie, I'll just bookmark that -- it's exactly what I was looking for!
Eric.

the trick is you don't keep up...
you just rammble incoherantly. as long as you mention bacon or cheesecake every once in a while they are none the wiser

Good point Mission. Remember also that there are many people who will post just for the sake of posting and raising their scores, er post numbers. Especially those noobs under 100.
Anyway.
bacon

It should be at the top, near the PM stuff is. If not, mebbe they don't have it in the standard skin for the board. I'm using the SMF one and....OWWW! DAMMIT Goz, what'd you punch me in the shoulder for? I'm just telling him he can change the skin on hi...OOOWWWWW!
Do it again, and I'm telling him about that thing you said about that rash on your dongle from soap and trying to prove Bones wrong about his theory!
-
He's trying... it takes practice, commitment, and typing 90wpm to keep up here.
Wait until he masters keeping up here and discovers EE's secret trapdoor.

I can barely keep in the EE trapdoor. I think I've broken a few keys on the kepboard typing to fast

If I were you, I'd start practicing with the other hand. Never can tell when it might be pressed into duty. Just ask Bones

another trick to keep up if your on dial up is to have 5 different windows going so while one reply is going through you can be loading another topic and reading another one....
