What does 'subscribe to this thread' mean? Please don't say 'subscribe to this thread'.

It means AB will email you if anyone posts an answer to the question that you have subscribed to.

[violetblue]

Er, what for? Can't I just read the answer when it's posted? Thanks for replying anyway, dodgy.

Violet, its meant to be helpful to get an AB e mail

It will tell you when an answer has been posted, not what that answer is.

[violetblue]

Don't get it! I know when an answer has been posted when I check the site. Never mind.

I have ticked the box many times but I never get an email sent unless I have posed the original question. When I go to 'My Profile' I can look at 'questions I have subscribed to' and this is how I assumed it works. I will try it again now.

It is so you don't have to go looking for the question
