Thanks @Lynx-lynx

Currently I need to read every thread that I remember posting in, just to ensure I don't miss someone responding to me. It is time consuming, and I have missed some pings.

Even subscribing as you describe, is not helpful. It sounds like a general alert, rather than an alert to a specific ping or quote of one of my posts.

I don't want to be forced to read multiple threads and multiple posts in the off-chance someone has pinged or quoted me. I don't know how everybody else gets around this issue, or are you just all used to it?

You get an alert for a PM, why not extend this functionality to @ pings and quotes? (which is what that plugin does.) Of course I am assuming this is a MyBB forum.

It would be nice if an Admin has some feedback.
