I've missed a lot and they're not coming up as new notifications. Just saw two today from Thursday I never got.
SO.. I gave up a lot time ago on getting notifications.. Some days I’ll get a email when a thread I follow is updated. Occasionally when someone mentions me. But not always.. I just use the “new posts” bottom and then I can see if a thread I participate in as actually new. Otherwise I would miss new topics or posts..
..... this.......I actually have mentions/thread notifications turned off. I still get them for Conversations however.
This is a budget forum running on pirated software hiring homeless people as admins. All of our dollars go to paying Strig's salary so we do not have the funding or resources smart enough to figure out such an issue.
And somehow it works better than the multi million dollar software project I am caught up in at work?
Damn, if I would've known y'all were homeless, I would've tossed ya a cookie here and there. I feel bad now. Not really but felt right to say lol. My question now is, with all that money string is getting why is he homeless still??
well hell.. Maybe we should do an intervention on him. I mean, that is if you think he's worth saving? hey, we all have our crutches. Yours just happens to be two kinds of blow..
In digging around the Admin side of things i cannot find anything that would prevent a person from getting alerts or any way to make sure they do happen. Id say its unreliable at best given all those that spoke up.
I've had system generated emails, such as forum alerts, end up in my spam/junk folder. Might be worth seeing if your email provider has decided they are spam.
It's not the emails, I disable those. It's the alerts I don't always get. But no biggie. Just don't want people thinking I'm ignoring or blowing off their replies to me.
