Isn’t quite what you’re asking, but if you set up your default to subscribe automatically to any thread you post to (I set it up without email notifications), you can just click “user CP” to see all your subscribed threads that have updates. ---

Doing this also shows little checkmarks next to the titles of the threads you’re subscribed to, which I think is what the OP wanted. ---

I guess the “sir” in your username is a giveaway…:smack: What nice is that you can also subscribe to threads w/o posting in them if you use the thread tool menu, and you’ll get those check marks too. But I don’t know away to mark the forums themselves. ---

Something else you can do is use the Advanced Search feature. Put your username in “User Name” (not Keywords), have “Exact” checked, and set “Show Results as” to “Threads”. I like this because it puts all the threads I’ve posted in on one page.
