Just a quick suggestion. I think it would be handy to be able to subscribe to a tag, just like you can subscribe to a thread now.

This way, for instance, I could subscribe to the tag "hybrids" and be notified anytime someone tags a thread with the word hybrids.

On the note of subscriptions, I would also like to suggest having the option of being notified of all new posts to a thread, not just the first one since you last visited.

At the moment, there is a possibility of receiving an email notifying you of a simple "me too" post, but not an important post that comes after it. If you don't go and visit the thread to read the "me too" again, you could miss out on that important post. Case in point: the Japfest thread.

It would probably take a bit of work, it's certainly not a five minute job.

Ok fair enough. How about the second idea? I can only guess, but I would imagine the code would be LESS complicated to send every update to all thread subscribers.

I can see an obvious response being about increased bandwidth requirements, however I would consider paying a bit extra each year to cover the extra costs just to get this feature. :)
