Apologies if I'm being thick, but is it possible to receive email alerts for threads that you've marked as "interesting"? Would save me having to check all the time for updates...

Bookmark or look in your history if you created or posted in them. Can't be that important.

It's not possible at the moment, although we may be adding email alerts to the forum in the near future.

Any news on this? It would be nice not to have to visit the forum to see if interesting threads have been updated...

Can we get an alert please whenever someone gets GI'd or banned including the reason.

And a tracker of re-regs, so hard to keep track of who's who you understand.

Tracking re-regs isnt really possible. All they need to do is re-reg from a different IP address using a different email, and then there is no way for mods to link the bew account to the old one.

Then you have the issue that multiple people living in the same household may have their own accounts.

To be perfectly honest, I don't care about the details.

Make it happen, it's 2018!
