you know .................


I'm getting deja vue about events that happened with this site in the past :-( :-|

Back then, they also used to deny it was their fault, or we're looking at it, or let us know if these "events"happen during the next week, we can't duplicate the problem, etc etc etc

Not much used to happen to improve the situation then either



I'm glad I have never bothered with My Watched Threads!!!

One less stress in my life! ;-)

I've e-mailed them, one of my watched thread has 2 additions 10th and 12th September without notification.

Hope they get this sorted. :-(

Ann, I think I said before that I haven't had an email alert for years but as I only have a few threads on Watch and can easily check them manually I haven't bothered about telling Genes. However I will send them an email now.

EDIT Email sent to Genes

I see nothing has happened about this then? Well it hasn't for me, still having to manually check my threads for replies.

The technical team are trying to sort this but have been unable to replicate the problem. If anyone has had problems with not receiving alerts for WATCHED THREADS would they please contact genes support as in the following I have had from them.

"Dear Ann,

Thank you for your reply.

I have passed this onto the technical team - they are currently unable to replicate this, but if you know of anyone else who is experiencing this, please encourage them to get in touch with us. The technical team will continue to look into this.



With kind regards,
