You should see that on the top left corner of the forum. Show new replies to your posts. It does lead you to the topics which you may have replied to, but it's kinda time consuming since you need to find your exact comment and see who quoted it.

A faster way to do it is just check your previous post and see whether someone quoted it. Do it in your profile > show the last post of this person.

Appreciate the reply! I knew about both methods but just wondering if there's an even more straight-forward way that I might have miss out on. The second method that you suggested work well if you check the thread again shortly after posting your own message and there's not much replies else you will still have to dig through all the comments.

It could really be frustrating when you posted on say page 3 and the next time you want to check it has reached page 12 but j think there is a a way you get notification when a new reply have been made to the post you commented. Although, I have not tried it but a quick perusal of my forum shows that when you click on the notify button and I think that should meet your need on this issue.

Both methods are time-consuming. It would be better to get notifications like facebook or other forums; for every "quote" or "reply" you'll get a notification...

If you have only specific boards where you post then you can use the search function. Use your name as the keyword and sort by most recent replies, then simply designate the timeframe in which you want to check for posts.

This was what I used before the 5 board limit rule so it's not as effective if you are active in many different sections of the forum however it should still work fine for individual boards.
This will not give you all the quotes, however. It will search for the most recent mention of your name for each thread and return that specific post. Thus if there's a quote pyramid it'll fetch the latest stack in it.

If you use a pc to access the bitcointalk account, you only need to bookmark the page where you submit your post, reply, qoute, so when you want to look back is there a reply from your question, you can just click the bookmark, and you no longer need to find where is  pages your time sending post.

This is something people have wanted for a while, but unfortunately there isn't an easy way to do it besides what has already been described above. Once the new forum software is the default it will have notifications for quotes, mentions, etc, but for now the best you can do is manually search threads you've been in.
