Check Post kicks in when you submit a reply to a thread. If that thread has been updated since your "last activity" (in other words, if $userinfo->['lastactivity'] is less than $threadinfo['lastpost']) it kicks in. There are two scenarios:

If you are posting using Post Reply, the end result is exactly as if you had selected "Preview", but with an additional and very obvious warning at the top of the page (along with an optional sound effect).

If you are posting using Quick Reply (via AJAX), you will receive a warning, but the thread itself is not updated (the way vB's AJAX works it's pretty much impossible to feed back an error AND an updated thread). The default warning adivses you to "Go Advanced" so you can review the new thread summary before posting, but you can just submit again and it will go through. No audio cues are given with Quick Reply (I may add that at some point).

The images I just uploaded should give you a good idea of how it work.
