When someone replies to the same thread we do? That seems rather unnecessary. I can see people ignoring the “alerts” feature rather quickly if this is the case.
You can change it in your preferences, but yeah, it’s dumb.
Ah, okay then. Seems like something you’d not wanna have set to default on the forums though.
EDIT: Well, I unchecked the box in my preferences about getting alerts every time someone replies to a thread that I did, and I’m still getting the alerts…
The only option I see about general reply alerts is for watched threads. Are you sure they’re not in your watched threads?
Alerts are okay, as long as you can adjust them and get rid of the ones you don’t want (or remove it completely). But I still get alerts in threads I subscribed to. Only difference is there isn’t a number popping up on the control panel.
Update: it’s fine now, must’ve been part of the settings tweaks going on up top.
