was wondering how u r the first to reply every time?

how do u get a notify of a post?

i also want to know to upgrade status from newcomer in training

does it just happen over time?

I don`t think I am first to reply everytime. However, I do tend to spend a hell of a lot of time here, so maybe that`s why you get that impression.

To get notification of replies do the following.

Click user profile at the top of any page and choose edit options. Scroll down to Messaging & Notification and under Default Thread Subscription Mode, choose instant email notification. Scroll to the bottom of the page and Click the save changes button.

Now everytime someone replies to a thread your have subscribed to, you will receive an email notifying you of the reply.

Edit: As for your question on members rankings, take a look HERE (http://www.techspot.com/extras/forum_guidelines/index.shtml) and scroll down the page a little.

There is an RSS feed for the OpenBoards.

If you have Firefox, click on that orange thingy on the left part of the address bar.

Threads merged.

I`m sure your email notification will work just fine. Sometimes it takes a few minutes to arrive.

Make sure your Techspot emails don`t go to your spam folder lol.
