email addresses

Post by SX_2.0_Monkey » Thu Dec 14, 2006 12:25 pm

:idea: I would like it when I subscribe to a topic, that it notifies me via cell phone. and I don't want everything coming to my email, just recently subscribed topics. any way of doing that? like maybe a second email address function that has selectable options? asking to much?

*edit
:idea: is it possibe to make the "watch this topic more pronounced, maybe in the original post, IDK, i'm just talking out of my butt. its ok, but i'm lazy. yet I'll sit here and type this. go figure.

and another thing, the gamespot.com forums have this. when it lists the views, it relizes what you have looked at and how many are new. just a suggestion. :wink:

Hmmmm...

The e-mail to your phone or as an SMS I'm not sure if it's available. However if you're using Outlook or some other e-mail application the has a Rules feature you can setup your mail client so that any e-mail with say an email subject containting "Topic Reply Notification" will automatically be forwarded to your phone e-mail address. As a built in feature of phpBB though I'm not aware of anything out there for such a thing.

As for the "Watch this topic for replies" link, I should be able to either move it place another one at the top of the thread to prevent having to scroll to the bottom but it may not look right in the overall layout. :-?

I'm a little confused at your last suggestion though. Are you talking about the number of views or just telilng you which you have viewed and not viewed? I'mn ot a member on GameSpot so I'm not too sure what you're suggesting :-?
