How do I get a list of the only thread I replied to?

You mean, like, the User CP? That shows all the updates to threads you've actually posted in?

Are you talking about subscribed threads?

Maybe I'm not understanding your question?

I use this: http://www.colonyofgamers.com/cogforums/search.php?do=finduser&u=133
Not exactly what you're asking for, but... oh well. :p

That's close. I just realized that the icons next to thread titles in the thread listings on the subforums change if you replied to the thread and if you hover-over it, it'll tell you how many times you replied in that thread. Which is kind of cool, and nearly what I wanted. It'll still let me spot the threads I replied to.

Another forum I visit that uses the same software that this board does has a "My Posts" link you can click and it brings up a list of all the threads that you've posted in. It just looks like a standard thread list that you'd find in a forum. I love it, it's so useful and easy to keep track of posts as I don't like subscribing to threads.

Go to your user CP and click Edit Options. Change your default thread subscription mode to "no email notification".
This will automatically subscribe you to every thread you post in from now on. Once subscribed, every thread that you have replied to since changing the setting will be marked with a checkmark icon to the right of the title, and your User CP will also list any threads you've replied to that have received new posts.
This is not retroactive however, and will only apply to posts since the setting was changed.
To find older replies, you'll have to use the search system. To do that, click on the Search link at the top of the page, and in the drop down box, click advanced search, then put your username in the Search by Username box. This will give you a search result of every thread you've posted to.
However, the software settings on this board limit results to 500 links, so you may want to narrow it down a bit. There are some other options in Advanced Search that will allow you to constrain your search by specific forum, or date ranges, however the latter functionality is pretty primitive.
You are also right about the icon to the right, but I must confess I rarely notice it, and I'd never noticed the mouseover effect I don't think.
