Topic and Forum Subscriptions

[Scrooge]

Do you ever subscribe to topics and forums so you get their latest posts? Would you rather do this and get notifications via PM, or notifications via email? And why would you pick the option you chose?

If you don't use this feature how do you stay up to date with topics?
