How about when a new thread is created, something is automatically posted in Bureaucracy?

Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
Would a simpler solution be to announce it in Press? And assume everyone reads Press? When I am on a time constraint, I always still read Press, Beep Me and Bureacracy.

That would be nifty, but I think it's simple enough for whoever creates the thread to write a quick post in Press.
I do want a subscribe button in every thread, because it seems kind of awkward to notice there's a new thread and have to go into my profile to subscribe to it, rather than in the thread itself.

But a subscribe button in the thread wouldn't help you notice that it's there - you'd already have to have found it.
New threads don't come up all that often - some of the options mentioned above seem like overkill. I'd vote for a simple announcement in Press. For continuation threads, could we put a link to the new thread in the closing post? Or even a subscribe button for the new one? I think you'd hit those who want to know without bothering everyone else.

Done for Natter 3 --> 4.
I don't know how I got subscribed to Natter 4. I was worrying about remembering to subscribe, and then it just popped up. I wonder what happened?
Independent of the new threads issue, I would like a Subscribe button in the thread. Going to the profile and hunting through a big list of threads for the right checkbox is awkward.
I don't want a subscribe button in the thread. But I can't articulate why, so carry on. Bureaucracy announcements seem fine.
