Is there a way already or could we get one?

There are threads that I have read and replied to. I would like a way to be notified or a way to skip too anyone that has/had quoted my post.

Rather than read an entire thread that I have already decided as tiresome I would like a way to find out if some person has quoted me or directly replied to my post without reading every post after mine.

Especially if the thread has many many posts.
I may not be interested in the many replies, but would rebut anothers post if I were quoted or directly used as a example.

Maybe there is an option for this and I have not found it.

this answer only applies to messages, not posted replies in the thread.
Which is my question, I know how to do the messages. Thanks anyway...that is if you come back and notice this since there isn't a way to notify you I have used your post in a quote.

That method works if your post has been "replied to" or "quoted" so long as the "quoted post" is done via the Reply or Quote feature, or copy/pasted along with the links from that feature... It won't link back if your post is copy/pasted (minus the links) ... Check it out, see if this post shows up in your U2U Messages under the Replies link.

Ahhh
I just did that.... It worked. As long as my user name is there your actions work!

Thank you so much!

You can also use the "Find On This Page" command in your browser, adding your user name, & using that on each page after your post.
