It's a good suggestions OP has requested and i will also like in addition to have the forum or any third party notification bot like that of the telegram that will update one on boards updates when a new topic is created aside the thread one, i understand this has already been implementation with the notify me botton whereby user can receive new topic updates on the gmail, but it will also make more meaning if the telegram function can include board notification.

This would be a great idea if implemented on the forum or a third party server. There are lots of knowledgeable members and many boards, this makes it difficult to keep up with everything that's posted over time. Having a system that notifies you when a user posts would be great. Extra points if you can choose the boards on which you would want to read their posts, for example, I might want to follow a user, but not want to be notified of their posts in Meta board.
This should be on forum, not using a third party tool,
It can be either. Third party tools have been useful in many areas of the forum.

Before forum members build up and publish tools for community, you can do it by yourself with Browser Bookmarks.If you want to follow me or any user, open their post history pages and book mark such page on your Browser bookmarks. You can manually check those pages daily if you want. Using this following way, you will have to filter who you actually want to follow. It is not like Twitter, when you manually follow too many members, you will waste more time to check their post history pages.

Well, I don't know if there's any other way the BTTsupernotifier bot works besides notifying users whenever they're mentioned in the forum. I don't think that bot is engineered to follow or monitor users. It's for mention. There's another bot in the forum that also monitors bounties – https://t.me/btt_bounty. If you're looking to follow a particular user, the way I do mine is to constantly check up their profile for new threads or posts. If it's to follow topics started in threads, just click on "watch" and you will automatically get notifications whenever someone replies in that thread. January 29, 2023, 02:26:25 PM
This should be on forum, not using a third party tool, I don't know what is the cost, how much storage capacity is needed, however I'm sure it will be huge, but it's doable.

There's a tool which has been created by LoyceV. It may be helpful to you. Visit the following topic to know how it works. LoyceV's: Follow users on Bitcointalk.org (posts and/or topics)

It will be done, eventually.
ETA is I’ll be back at home in less than a month.
Funny thing, I was coding something like this the moment I got notified for your post (
).
1. Follow a user (i.e for every time he posts something). Thinking about including an option for disallowing others to follow him.
2. Some kind of mailing list. You go to the bot and create a mailing list, you get a code that you can share on your topic. Other people can send the code to the bot so they enable notifications for your list. You, the list creator, can notify everyone by adding something like "notify myMailingList" on your post.
Unfortunately, this won't go live until I come back from my next trip tho (1-2 months).

My main purpose of opening this topic is to know that if there is any tool to follow forum users(like @BTTSuperNotifier_bot). Because I saw there are many knowledgeable members whose posts will increase my knowledge and will bring a extra speed to my work. I know users can be followed particularly but I think it wastes a lot of time and sometimes misses a lot.
- Also, since there is an ignore option in the forum, How would it be? turning on an option for following.
- Also, I would request to @TryNinja to create another option in that telegram bot to track user's posts option like the track topic option .
