Same here.....I don't mind with the threads but I like to know when someone reports a post. :ashamed:

I like the notifications by email. That way I know when someone posted to topic I started or posted reply on.

Yeah I agree with that. But when you have not been on in say 12 hours, your email is cluttered with LOTS of notifications (since I reply to lots of threads).

:laughing:

My email gets checked every hour when possible. If not then I could have as many as 25+ by the evening hours. Back in the spring when I moved to WV from Va. I had around 150 emails in 4 or 5 days cause i havent got internet yet back then in WV where I moved too.

Yeah-wow! Now that I am not getting notifications, it's amazing how quickly I can go through all my emails! :laughing:

I get my emails on my phone and look at them as soon as they come in. Yes even when I am on a mower.

Is that a handheld phone or one of those new wrist watch phones?

I am on a lot of different forums so if I didn't block the forum notifications it fills up my E-mail too bad so I never missed it.

I have not received email notifications since the week before labor day. I have PMed muhammed about this and until now I thought I was the only one who had this problem. The last time I got a PM from him, he said it must be my system. Now I think it is the forums problem. Because of my schedule lately, I need them, as I don't have the time to go through all posts to see if someone has replied. I hope they can get this fixed ASAP, it sure would help me.

So you don't use the full site? (getting on from your computer.) Because if you did you could go to the Control Panel and see your unread subscribed threads until the notifications are back.

No, emails let me know if anything is out there. Works best for me, as I can see if a reply is neccessary. Don't have to review all posts that way.

Is user Rivets & me the only ones who thought they were the only ones(or it was somehing we clicked on that messed up our email notifications:0)

Glad I got bored and wandered into the Site Discussion Forum!!! I've been having such significant problems with my Outlook in Windows 7 that I'm running as a virtual machine via VMWare Fusion on my iMac I thought maybe that was my problem. Sure am glad it's not related!!!!!!

I am not 100% sure what's going on with the e-mails but I definitely have an ultimate solution that will fix it... just kind of want to figure out this issue first.

Well....after 43+ years in Mainframe Computer support, it's not surprising to me when a forum administrator portrays the infamous "head scratching" position:0)

I've always said......."To err is human, but to get things really messed up you need a computer":0)

I'm confident you guys will find the root cause and git er fixed!!!

Maybe now is a now good time switch to Tapatalk since its free for everyone now. Just a suggestion

Sometimes if there have been updates to the site it will cause these issues. Go to your user cp, and go through the steps again to except email notification even if it shows they are already set. See if that will fix the problem it works sometimes. If not notify the admin.

The app is very good. Very easy to get around.
You get a Notification every time anyone comments on a thread you have commented on plus a email if you choose to receive both.

Easy to post pics.
All threads are in order of last ones commented on.

No signing in every time and no ads.

Pics dont always upload. Tapatalk is easier to use for me. Easier to find stuff and upload pics. I stopped using the app cause its too hard to use it the way the layout is of it. So I just use PC for this forum and pics come from photobucket. Plus I get notifications on tapatalk that dont get on the forum runner app.

November 15 has come and gone, still not receiving any email notifications. Will this instant notification problem be fixed soon? Are we to assume that it is something you are working on, or a problem that is not high on the prioriety list, an we shouldn't expect it to return? Not having it is one of the reasons I have not been around much.

Nov 26, 2013#46

Still no workie for me. Getting tried of coming back 3-4 times day to check for new posts and replies posts I replied to.

I am wondering about it, too. :mur: They really came in handy. I think the spammer problem is more of a priority, but that isn't fixed, either. :frown:

Maybe we should just upgrade to the newest version of forum software and maybe it will fix both issues.
