It looks like you get a notification if someone responds to a thread that you started. That is a pretty neat feature. Just testing to see it that is really the case.
It is just a notifcation that shows on the top right of your screen. Its a little globe that is there all the time and it does a red number next to it like facebook. It does that with PMs too which I think is good.
Re: Notifications After Starting A Thread
Sure did. That is a good feature I think.
