That's actually a very good question! Here's a guide to how it works.

Do not subscribe to this thread:

Choose this and you won't be informed if anyone responds to the thread or not. This is the default option, so if you don't select one of the other options, this is what will happen.

Subscribe without receiving email notification of new replies:

If you choose this option you will be able to see if anyone has responded by going into your control panel (User CP, at the top of the page) and clicking on the 'subscribed threads' option on the left of the page.

Subscribe and receive email notification of new replies:

If you choose this option, you will be emailed when someone responds to the thread.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Olly, your editor

Sorry to ask a simple question . Their are 3 options for thread subscriptions. I understand no 2 and 3 but not the first one. :s:

Forums are new to me.

Thanks
