Well, its exactly how it sounds. Can there please be an easier way to track your, or someone elses, previous posts? Ive seen the feature on other sites and i found it quite helpful. On trackmill is was located on your user profile. Can there be something like this on AG?
So you basically want a way to stalk other people? Personally I find that creepy.
I see no real need to know where people posted last. I mean, allright, it might be nice to see what forums they posted in, and see if your intrested in posting there as well, but other then that...I can't find a purpose.
in trackmill id post something somewhere and either forget or what other reason dont remember where it was located under, i just went to my profile and there was a tab tht said ' show recent posts by this user ' and i could find what thread and section it was under. Its more useful than it sounds.

That doesn't sound like it was very important then. Either that, or you posted so many places too fast, and you forgot. Go track your own movements down in bookmarks. That way it will be private to you, only be a feature to people who want to keep track of themselves, and we won't get problems with people always replying to certain people (harassment, stalking, trolling, flaming), ignoring everything but their posts.
He's talking about a page where all your posts are displayed, as it they were a single thread. I've seen it on other sites too. The only real application for this I presume would be reference. Since this is an easy way to stalk, I believe if it ever comes here it should be only be privately viewed. Well, that what it is on most sites but I've seen at least one site that doesn't.
Wait and see for version 3.0? Considering I doubt they will work on making the forums better before they are done with the site in general. For all we know, we might even get to keep these forums (for better and worse), so... But I will let it stay open for a while. Discussing this might give a better solution, or at least better reasoning.
Easy for moderators to find spammers' topics, easy for yourself to find your own topic (I swear I posted a help topic yesterday in Flash games forum, but I can't find it <_< ), etc...
Oh, and a way so we can track latest posts, would be kind of like what they do on Youtube or something, were you go to the inbox, and it shows you who replied to your post.
every time someone make a suggestion some spammer brings in an edit button!! grumble grumble.. make your own thread for that.
back on topic.. nice idea but then again we should probably have some way to let people allow/deny if they want someone to "follow" them. twitter refrence there.
