Subscribing to a Thread

[hsfb24]

New here to CG. What are the benefits to subscribing to a thread? I would like to get notified anytime there is a reply on a thread that I didn't start. Does subscribing to it take care of that for me or is there a different way? Thanks for the help...

Never mind, I found it...

What subscription modes are available?

There are a number of different forum subscription modes available.

No Email Notification - lists the subscription in your User CP only. You do not receive any notifications about new posts or threads in the forum.
Daily Email Notification - sends one email a day with the new and updated threads in the forum and any sub-forums. If there are no new or updated threads in the forum or its sub-forums then you will not receive an email.
Weekly Email Notification - sends one email per week in the same way as the Daily Email Notification.
Thread Subscriptions have the same options as forum subscriptions with the following additional option:

Instant Email Notification - sends an email as soon as a new post is added to the thread. This is not sent for every reply and will only be sent once until you revisit the forums.
