So when I subscribe to a topic, I know I'm suppossed to get emails when someone replies to that topic and I do..... kind've; I get one email from the initial reply and then I have to keep checking back on the topic manually; so, to sum it up, even if I read the topic (even following the link in the email) I will never get another email, and yes I do click on the correct link out of the two in the email.

Do you mean when you click the 'Email me when this thread changes' link?

It's not specifically labelled or says that near it, there's a normal link to the thread, and then a second link if I want to unsubscribe to the thread. This whole thing just irritates me because the subscribe function is not working as it should, being as I'm only getting one email, and even when I read the thread through the proper link in said email, I will never recieve another email about that thread.

Scroll to the bottom of a thread and use the 'email me' link. The subscription stuff will just email you once you have made a reply, not for every reply or it would flood people's mail accounts.

Okay, thanks for the help legoburner, guess I'm more used to the B&C.
