AI Thread Summary
To access a list of threads where recent posts have been made, users can visit the search page and enter their username in the "Search by User Name" field. This will display all threads containing their posts, sorted by the latest response. Users do not need to subscribe to each thread to keep track of their activity. The new version of vBulletin allows subscriptions without email notifications, making it easier to manage thread engagement. This method effectively resolves the issue of tracking recent posts.

Tell me how I can access a list of all of the threads in which I have recently posted, in order of latest response first. I don't wish to subscribe to each and every thread, but would prefer being able to search my user name (which I am not currently allowed to do).

By the way, the new version of vBulletin (the software this forum runs) allows you to subscribe to threads without getting mail notifications. So you can subscribe to all the threads you post in without being bombarded by email.

Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
