Can we maybe have a "notify list" going? So if a certein person on these forums post something, you will get an email saying "(username) has posted in (the topic name)" ... So you can add people to your notify list, and when they post, you will be notified via email or something that THAT person that is on your notify list has posted. I think that this function would be rather helpfull to many... what do you think?
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
"Notify List"
- Thread starter Climax
- Start date
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Let me explain in more detail...
Paradox: I am well aware of that function... I was meaning to have something like an email sent to us whenever a certein USER posts ANYWHERE, without you subscribing to that thread.
Eg: I put YOU on my notify list and then you reply to a thread that i am NOT subscribed to, then i will get an email or something telling me that YOU have posted on a thread somewhere.
Hope you understand now

good idea, but to make something like that for this software u'd have to hire a full time programmer and you'd have all the specs of the forum out int the open. You can do it, if you got an extra grand laying around.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Wait. Nevermind. Don't answer.
It would have to be built into the vBulletin software. Why would you need to do this unless you are stalking someone?Originally posted by ~ªêQµïTª$~

nah... its got nothing to do with stalking anyone.. its to do with the fact that some people post GOOD advice and there are some people that i would like to keep track of what they have to say about different situations etc, and i'm sure that others would too. But never mind, it doesnt look like you guys are taking it seriously.

Why don't you put them on your buddy list, then every time you log in each day you just hit "search" to see if they've posted any new threads? That's what... a whole 3 clicks (user cp> their name> search for all posts by this user)?
Sorry, but I'm not contributing to the development of stalker software.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
