Notifications Aren't Working For Me

Dread Pirate Arbuthnot

For a couple of months now, @Dread Pirate Arbuthnot will not trigger a notification next to my name, and replies in threads i make don't garner notifications either. It seems to be working for everyone else, so it might be a quirk just for me. Any ideas?

Have you tried clicking your name in the top right corner, then going to My Preferences on the left, and making sure that the option to receive notifications is checked? Maybe at some point you unchecked it? That's my only guess.

I've noticed that I rarely get notifications tied to my name too. They seem to be there if I look at the notification list, but I don't get a little number beside my name all that often any more.

Generally, it's Wilting's posts in this thread that I don't get any alert from any more. I had one in a D&D chat thread that worked just fine the other day, however.

I've checked all of the notification boxes, notifications still don't seem to work for me. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

I'm getting the opposite (and I would put this as not working as well). I have unchecked ALL of the boxes and those annoying notifications will not stop coming up everytime I bring up a new forum page. Anyone have an idea on how to fix that? Seems to be repeating the same ones over and over again. I'm using FireFox, the newest one.

The downtime seems to have fixed the issue, thanks!

I am having this same issue. With the notification to bookmarked discussions constantly popping up. Every time I go to a new page and even after I've been on a page for a while the same notifications pop up.

Edit-Never mind. All of the sudden things are acting properly again. Thanks anyway.
