I frequent several forums and post in them as well. I have a gmail account and Google Talk. With email notifications here, I get small popups in my system tray, that let me know someone has replied to a thread I've posted in.
It's helpful for when I'm helping someone. But bad when notifications go down for several days. It happened earlier this week and my inbox was flooded with mass email.
I could use "My Forums". But instead, I just look at the notification, read it and see if it's worth going to that forum to post or not. Yours was... I wanted to see if you really cursed or not. lol
