In this forum, I am finding that the posting option "Notify me when a reply is posted" is always unchecked.

When we post something, we usually want us to be notify whenever a reply is posted to that.

Whenver I post something, I have to manually check this option, otherwise, if I forget to check it, I post something and then wait for 3-4 days wondering why no one is replying to my post, and then check at forum and find several replies.

So, I guess this option should be TICKED as default, enabling us to get to know of the reply immediately.

I think that is the setting for most of other fora.

Thanks.

Who is "we" here? I suppose it is not intended as majestic plural.
Please do not generalize your own preferences.
I for one, treasure that the "Notify me when a reply is posted" option is not marked by default.

However, I can imagine such preference could be defined as a user preference in the User Control Panel,
just like you can define notification preferences for boards you are subscribed to (if any).
