click the arrow beside your name, view post history. There's no specific listing for your subbed threads but that will give you all your post history.

Emm.. not completely true.

At the tippy top of Steam where it says "Steam - View - Friends - Games - Help"
If you look waaaay to the right where it says your Wallet Balance, your account name, plus the like Minimize, Maximize program icons"?

Over there on the right there should be a "little Envelope" where you get notifications.

Click the little Envelope (just to the left of your Steam Wallet Balance)..
From there the top option of "New Comments", select that.
Then.. from there on the right it will say "Comments on Subscribed Discussions".. Click that.

That only applies if new comments have been made to the discussion. It won't help if the discussion has been moved.

i didn't know the person was trying to find a moved discussion. i thought they were trying to find discussions they had activately participated in.

And.. for me, anyway, even if there has not been a new post in a subscribed discussion for a month, the discussion still appears there.. so long as someone responded to the discussion even one time after i subscribed...

At least that seems to be how it works for me.

I don't know "what" they were trying to find, which is why I gave them the most reliable way to find it. As you said it requires someone having at least posted in it once after you do, and even then if the thread gets moved the notification link is usually invalid. It's even more annoying if you have browser bookmarked it because you simply get a "this thread was moved or deleted page" which doesn't help either. :P I wasn't trying to deride you, just pointing out the problems with that path to find subbed threads.

But that comment history doesn't show only subscribed discussions?? that shows every single comment you make on Steam Forums even if you are not Subscribed to the Discussion at all?

i have never tried to bookmark a steam discussion, and i guess i don't participate in too many "moved" threads because i've never seen a problem with the subscribed thingie i linked to..

Except, ya.. if no one posts after you have then it doesn't seem to appear on that list. But once someone does it seems to stay there until you unsubscribe.

For me, i guess, i find the "post history" page very messy. When i'm looking for places i posted it can be annoying to scroll back through pages and pages of forum posts looking for some discussion i subscribed to 7 months ago >.>

i guess Steam doesn't really have an elegant way of really properly tracking discussion subscriptions. So using both Comment History and the "Comments on Subscribed Discussions" end up both being necessary .. depending on the situation.

It's extremely annoying and difficult to find a discussion you subbed to, that was never posted in again after you subbed to it.. if the discussion happened months ago and you post on Steam forums a lot.

Don't I know it. I post enough in a day that if the post was more than 3 days ago I don't even try and find it anymore :P
