Operator error or just a Duh ?

[Common]

Im having alot of difficulty getting back to a post Ive written to see if theres a response that I should respond to. I am not ignoring anyone or avoiding answering any questions. I just cant find my way back.
Other forums have a list of your last posts, some notify you if someone answered your posts. I dont see any of that here unless im out right missing it.
Ive noticed most folks here dont quote your post when responding they just respond, that seems to make it even more difficult.
Any help would be appreciated

Subscribing to threads helps. There is a latest posts button.

[Chris]

Go to your Profile, click on Latest Posts.

[hanger4]

Click on your user name, upper right of the page.

Then on the left side you'll see "latest posts" and "latest started threads"

[Peter1469]

I use the new post button, at the top left below Forum. That will give you a list of all new posts since you clear using marked forums read.

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!! All the responses helped :)

Easier when "See My Posts" type link is on the forum page though.

It would be kind of nice to have a "Go to your last post" in the thread option. I've seen it used on other forums.

Yes Adelaide that would be perfect for not so smart old men like me :)

The New Post button at the top left is the closest thing to that on this board when you use the Mark as Read button to clear the posts that you have already read.

There's a way to do this by clicking on one of the arrows Chris made a nifty diagram and posted it somewhere on here...

I have this problem too...there was a mod that notified you when you were quoted but I think it got removed -- I liked having the choice.

None of these take me to a list of all the posts I have made, from most recent, to last.

That is what is helpful in keeping up when you are popping in and out.

Left click on your name, and then left click on view posts.

Already explained, go to your profile, click on Find latest posts.

Right click on your name, and then right click on view posts.

Left click for me.

Duh, GO TO PROFILE takes minutes w/ slow speed dial-up.

That is NOT the same as a link right there on the page, taking you to your posts.

I'm not sure what you want...just a button up at the banner like What's New that just lists your own posts? Or something more complicated?
ADMIN Adelaide can someone hook him up?

Not to mention another site, but right next to quick links it had "See My Posts", click that, it showed YOUR THREADS STARTED and YOUR POSTS.

It moved pretty fast too.

Slow but I could get used to it.

You know how it is when you change formats a bit.

Yup when this place moved to vbull it took a lot of getting used to and I still miss a lot of posts I think, the @ mentions are good if you really want to get someone's attention

Takes forever for me to open a "mentions".

Isn't there a version of the site for slow connection issues?

Who knows, but, I am managing, don't need to spend so much time here anyway.

Will be painting all the wood on the exterior of my house as soon as we dry up a bit.

Sure won't have time then.

[Conley]

Yeah, Greenman change the style on the bottom left to mobile it'll go a lot faster for you. Turn off sigs and avatars too if you're going to stick with the full desktop version.

[Greenridgeman]

OK, tried mobile, hate it, how do I get OUT of it?

Click on the bottom where it says FULL SCREEN
