Or did you...? There's actually one more way you can get this information. If you're subscribed to forums, those forums appear in the navigation box on the left side of the screen (The "Signed in as TygrBright" box) -- if you click the "Subscribed Forums" link in that box they will appear below.

Now, if you click the "Mark All" button which can be found on various top-level pages (the Latest page, but also your Subscriptions page) the forum icons in that box will turn from yellow to white. After that, whenever a new thread is posted in one of your subscribed forums, the forum icon will change back from white to yellow to let you know.

You can then visit your Subscriptions page to see the thread in question, and while there you can hit the "Mark All" button to reset the forum icons back to white. That does require some manual action on your part, but the process might provide you with the "check your subscription page, there are new posts" information you're looking for.
