No, no it isn't. I just get sent to the places I put replies.

No, not at all. It only shows where I last posted.

People are supporting for a list of topics you're following to only be visible to you. Well, that's already implemented! https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/search/?action=show_subscriptions

To get to it:

  1. Go to the bottom of the discussion home.
  2. Click on show your posts.
  3. Go to the bottom of that page, then click on show your subscribed topics.

Topics will be ordered by the date of the most recent post (newest to oldest). You can click on show results as post list to see all posts on topics you're following, again, newest to oldest.

No. This isn't visible to other users.

Also, for OP (Owner of the thread) (Yanderan)
Any time someone supports/doesn't support, copy the part with
  • Cheese
and paste it in the bottom of the correct list, and change “Cheese” to the user's name.
Here's a new format for your post.
Click the quote button in the bottom right of the below post and copy everything except for the “quote=the2000” and “/quote” parts. V

So in ANY user's profile page (with the users he / she's following, studios curating, etc) there would be a new tab called “Discussions I'm following”. Anyone can view this tab, as long as the user allows people to view it.

Supporters :
  • OpenWood
  • bigpuppy
  • Lythium
  • PrincessPandaLover
  • the2000
Non-Supporters
  • Mmaarten

^^^^

Supporting and Non-supporting is a very bad way to show an argument. As via ST discourages the use of Support and No Support.
Thus making the lists for Supporters/Non-supporters all the more useful

In the profile button you can see studios you follow, people you follow, and people who follow you but you can't see the discussions that you are following. I agree with Yanderman that it would be nice if they added the discussions you're following so if you figure out an answer to someone's question you can easily find the post and answer their question.
I am aware that you get messages from discussions if something new is posted but what if it was posted a month ago? By then it could be several pages away. At least one discussion post is made each day making it almost useless looking through 500+ pages trying to find the one that you are following. Other people will also be able to see the questions you posted by looking at your profile. So it would also be good for advertisement reasons. Your followers see if you asked a question and then you have more of a chance of someone answering it for you.
I hope that the scratch team will add this.

No, this one is older. The one you linked is a duplicate of this one.

Well, technically Suggestions can't be necessarily solved… But I see your point on the necro.

Master Post, I don't think this is necessary seeing as it doesn't add anything really, because the forums are more of a different thing, more than the more known part of scratch. So, no support.

I support this, I want to see what studios I'm following so that I have sort of a bookmark of topics. But people don't want to see a bunch of random posts, so it shouldn't be publicly available to other people, just to you. What if you have a post in your signature and someone asks what it is from, but you forget what the topic was? This would be helpful for situations like that.

I'm confused, that doesn't exist, and I came here because I cant follow the studio that people apply to be a curator for projects on, so this doesn't help! Can somebody tell me why I'm having this problem?
