Suggestion: Thread notifications

[droomph]

We should have a thing where it notifies you if your thread is approved or not (say, in emulation). While it's okay with me that we check with the mods or look for the Grandmaster thread I think it would be nice to know what is happening to your thread. It is certainly confusing to think that your thread is deleted but in fact it's still pending, in the off chance that the mod misses your thread.

While this would be great if added and much appreciated in the Pokémon Clubs section, I think at the moment it's pretty much up to the moderators of whatever section it is to notify the user on their thread. Honestly, in most cases I don't think it's necessary to inform the members when their clubs have been approved, unlike if it was deleted, where it should be up to the moderator of given section to inform the members on why their threads were deleted instead of leaving them in the dark, possibly thinking that their thread may have gone unnoticed.

In Challenges, I have a thread where I post unapproved challenges and the reasons they weren't approved. Roleplay Corner does this as well I think, but also lists approved roleplays. I don't list approved ones because Challenges is relatively small and it's easy to go back and see if your challenge is there, especially if you care enough about it.

idk how we could have a notification other than the moderator telling you, but I mean, it should be your responsibility to check and ask after 24 hours if you don't see it, especially in the case of a busier forum like Emulation. Those guys have a lot more to do than notify members.

As for possible pending threads, you can contact the moderator of that forum after 24 hours of your thread being posted to ask and make sure if it has been checked or not.
