Any way we can be notified when someone quotes your post?

I think it would just be a really useful thing to help facilitate conversations among forum members. Yea, I know the easiest thing is to check back to the topic you posted in, but sometimes I am only on the forums for little spurts of time. Also, when I make a post in one topic, I normally just like to move onto another topic to comment on, leaving the previous topic alone.
With some sort of notification system where we get a little signal that tells us when someone has responded, it would make the whole experience on the forums a lot better. I know this may not be the easiest thing to get done but it would be really nice to see so I figured I would bring up the suggestion anyways.

Maybe this?
User Control Panel
Board Prefrences
Edit posting defaults
Notify me upon replies by default: Yes No

Re: Any way we can be notified when someone quotes your post
So ever since I changed my default settings, I still wasn't seeing any notifications. I just brushed this off because for the time being it wasn't a huge deal for me. Well I just checked my old email address (the one I used to sign up for Junkie) and saw all of the reply notifications there. That's great and all, but why clog up my email inbox when the notifications could just be on MMAJunkie website itself? Couldn't the notifications be sent to me via the private messaging?
Just looking for some answers here my good friends and Junkie overlords.

Notifications via SMS would be awesome too.

Help Me Out
I've contacted a few Junkie staff members, but I have not gotten a response to my concern.
Does anyone know if there was a way you can receive an email notification only when someone quotes you on a thread?
I hate having to check every thread I posted on to see if I got a response.

I'm still getting an email notification whenever someone posts on the thread. I want to make so that I get an email notification ONLY when someone quotes me.

I'm surprised that isn't a desirable option. I;m sure I'm not the only one who hates having to search through threads to see if someone has quoted me.

I think we all wanted this ability when we first started posting.
I think I may have even asked about it in Support & Suggestions some time ago.

Re: Help Me Out
This would be a semi-easy feature to add. It would be forum wide though, and not just for a thread. Considering the features they already have, im surprised they don't already have this. The "curseword replacer" is basically the same feature but with an account check and a notification added at the end.

To me, it sounds horrible (but that doesn't mean it isn't a good toggle option for those who desire it). I get enough e-mail without a inbox full of "you were quoted by so and so." The first thing I did when I finally joined Facebook was turn off all those damned e-mail notifications. If that had proved to be impossible, I would have deleted my account immediately.

Not really. Most Usernames are unique, but common words as usernames might trigger unwanted notifications. Brick, for example, would be notified anytime someone used the word brick in their post, based on the curseword replacer implementation.
You could do it by ignoring everything but the name after the "quote =" string. That's really the best implementation I can think of offhand.

I go to a forum that has this capability and it's as annoying as a whiny, trailer-trash w---- flashing her crack-stained, rotting teeth at you in an effort to get your money so she can get high.

Why? I don't think anyone gets quoted that often that this would be a nuisance.
I just feel it would make interacting on the forum that much easier and convenient.
