As far as I know, it's not an option. I don't think TV Tropes does anything involving users' emails at this point and time.
Well, there's no such thing as a "reply" to your forum posts, at least as long as far as the forum software is concerned. I'm pretty sure it only counts things as replies to the thread as a whole (which you can follow if you put it on your watchlist). As far as I know, that feature does not have a PM feature.
Fight smart, not fair.TV Tropes does not collect or utilize your email address in any way, shape, or form. We have considered requiring email addresses for account verification but that is, at best, at the wishlist stage.
The best way to keep track of threads that interest you is to add them to your forum watchlist and check it regularly.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Is there a way one could add email functionality, for people who actually like getting notifications that something they are watching has been updated?
Replied in PM. No, I somehow don't think it's going to be implemented.

We don't ask for an e-mail addy when you register, for one thing.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.I'm also sure that FE et al are disinclined to add to the complaint load with people being paranoid about the use of their e-mail addresses.
All your safe space are belong to TrumpAs I said earlier, this is not on the table currently. Also, moving to Tech Wishlist.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Reopened this, since the major reason why this didn't work back then was because we didn't collect people's email addresses.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanDefinitely a big want for me. I'm too easily distracted by refreshing threads when I should be focusing on other things. Getting notifications of any sort would bring so much relief.
this place needs me hereRolled into another admin request so closing now.

I've been searching around the forums for a way to get automatic email notifications when someone replies to one of my forum posts or sends me a personal message (you know, like every other forum has), but I haven't found that option. Does it even exist?
If it ain't broke, fix it 'til it is
