I have noticed that when I participate in a thread here (ie. helping someone or a discussion), I only get notifications of replies to my comments (or all new comments if I created the thread). This makes it more complicate to notice all relevant replies and eventually we forget the thread and the person requiring our help or the discussion.

I suggest that whenever writing a comment or replying to someone, the device will automatically "follow" the thread and notice of all replies. Off course it could be turned off on a per-thread basis or totally if one wants to.

Additionally, I suggest that whenever mentionning someone ( like this: @CHMultimedia) we also get notified of it. I have noticed several times that people mention my name either to reply to me or ask me additional information, but I have not noticed it until I manually go back in the older threads and check myself.

As a bonus suggestion, I also suggest that if someone has a question/issue, if it gets answered/solved by the community, the person that made the thread should be able to set it as "solved" and select which answer(s) helped. In the forum, there would be a neat green circle with a checkmark in it to show it is solved. In the actual thread, the answer(s) would have a pale green/blue background.

Thank You!

As for a temporary fix for the second issue you mentioned, you can actually search yourself up using the search bar in the top right corner of the forums. type "@Brando" or whatever and go into the drop down menu and hit comments.

True, but it is not very convenient especially if you help multiple persons at once.
