Taking how long I've been on this site, I'm about one day old.
I do though, find that finding the topics you have recently posted in is very difficult. You don't know when someone replies to you or not.
I know of the subscribing option but that's not the same, it doesn't tell you whether or not someone has replies. It's just not fast and easy.
In a small family forum of mine that I go to, they have a 'Click here to see unread posts' and when you click on it, you get a link of all the topics you've posted in... THAT HAVE REPLIES TO THEM.
So you don't have to go to every single one and check and see if there is a reply.
I think that this option would make things much quicker and easier.
And if a small forum community like the one I'm talking about can have such an option, I know a site like this one will have no problem with it.

That is the small forum I was talking about, you can see the option there after registering.
New members are always welcome by the way ^^
