Forum bookmarks are similar to the Favorites function of your internet web browser, and provide quick access to interesting message board content for future viewing. The forum bookmarks system allows you to add interesting threads to a bookmark collection and can be accessed with the Bookmarks button displayed in the menu at the top of the forum.
One advantage to using the online forum bookmarks, rather than the favorites features in your web browser, is that forum bookmarks are always available through your online forum account regardless of which computer or internet connected device you are using. Another advantage is that you can receive notifications letting you know when topics you have bookmarked have been updated. These notifications range from having a notification come up on the forum, allowing you to see at a glance that a topic has been updated, or you can receive emails letting you know when topics have been updated. You can modify your notification options in your profile settings.
To bookmark a thread, first navigate to a thread on the message board that you find interesting and would like to bookmark. Once viewing the thread, click the Actions drop-down menu found just above the first post of the thread, and from the menu select the Bookmark option. Once you choose the Bookmark option from the action menu, you will notice a Bookmark image display in the top-left hand corner of the thread, just above the post at the top of the page, see below. You will also notice that the Bookmark option in the action menu has now changed to read Remove Bookmark, allowing you to remove the bookmark if made by accident.
