Hello again!

I would love if you guys added a function to alert us if we are quoted anywhere on the forums. That way we can go directly to it if it's a popular thread instead of having to browse through like four pages if we haven't been on in a day to see if someone responded to us.

Thank you!

I agree it would be nice, but it's probably too much work for MAL to bother doing. They have to have tracking numbers on every post and then add a quote system where it actually associates usernames with posts and knows which posts you were quoted in etc., which the current site's power probably wouldn't be able to support.
Yeezus walks.

This would be really useful indeed, I don't need to see a message like ___ has quoted you in ___.
Just a short mail / notification saying that someone quoted me and that I need to click ___ to go to his post #.

I blame them for removing the option to donate, it's fine even if they make some profit with people donating. They've been doing so many good things and I can't imagine how stuff would be without MAL.
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page.
