New feature: Bookmarking topics

In the new version of the forum software, they've added a bookmark feature for topics. In the past you could subscribe to topics that you wanted to follow, and receive and email whenever a new post was made. Well, getting email all the time soon becomes annoying, and many stop using the Topic Reply Notification (Subscribe topic) feature.

Enter the Bookmark feature. We all know how to use bookmarks in our favorite web browser, but now you can use the forum itself to bookmark your favorite threads without having to browse or search for them when you'd like to check in.

Adding a Bookmark
1. Navigate to the thread you'd like to bookmark.
2. At the bottom of the page there is a bar with 3 links on the left hand side: Board Index, Subscribe Topic, and Bookmark Topic. Click the "Bookmark Topic" link.
3. The topic has been added to your bookmarks.

Accessing you Bookmarks
1. To access your bookmarks, click on the User Control Panel link near the top of the page while you are logged in.
2. Click the "Overview" tab, and 5 links will appear in the left hand column.
3. Click "Manage Bookmarks."
4. To remove a bookmark, click the checkbox that corresponds with the bookmark and click the "Remove marked bookmarks" button at the bottom of the list.
