For this one, try going to "Edit thread options" which is at the bottom of the message view:




Or also a shortcut to get there is to click on the little icon area on the left of the thread list:




Once inside the thread options, set it to "subscribed":



After you click "subscribed" scroll down and push the "Save" button at the bottom to apply the change.


Later on when you want to view all these particular marked threads, change the "View" option at the top of the threads list to view subscribed threads only:




Is that the kind of thing you are thinking of?

One thing to note is that you may receive e-mail notifications of posts to subscribed threads, you can turn it off in options somewhere if you don't want that.

You can also use the "Interested" state instead of "subscribed" - but also I think by default any thread you post in will be set to "interested" - there is a setting under the forum options to not do that as well if you want to control it manually.
