    As a Pinside+ user that browses the market subforums frequently, I would like to be notified any time a new thread is started, so that I am less likely to miss out on a "for sale" thread for a hard to find part. I believe this would add great value to the paid Pinside+ features.

    Notification for any thread posted globally is good enough. Being able to "subscribe" to individual subforums is even better. I use this a lot on stock Xenforo sites and really like it.

    Example of why I'm requesting this: Recently a PFS thread was started with a couple of hard-to-find WPC transformers for sale. I missed out because I didn't know they were listed until I got home and checked the site.

    You want a hundred notifications every day just for pinball stuff? This is the opposite of what I want in my digital life

    If that’s what it takes, yes. I’m building a game from scratch and there’s parts that might only pop up once a year. It’s definitely worth $35/year to me to get notified when a part comes up.

    If we can choose subforums this is a non-issue though, because there aren’t that many sale threads posted.
