The ‘Watch This’ button & email alert doesn’t always work. GR are allegedly ‘working on it’. They’ve been saying that for months.

Once you’ve started a thread, it’s best to stay on your device & refresh the page every few minutes. If you aren’t able to do that, log back on a bit later and check ‘My Threads’ (to the left, under Tools) to find the ones you’ve started or posted on. if someone has added, the icon next to the title shows a blue sheet of paper poking out of a buff folder.

Thanks everyone. Must be doing something wrong. Have yet to figure out what that is. Took so long to reply as expected notifications in my inbox
