Topic reply notification
« on: Monday 07 August 06 18:20 BST (UK) »
Notification of replies to some of my topics or PMs are taking 4/5 days to arrive, others arrive within a few minutes of being posted.

Is this a problem with Rootschat or my ISP?
Meanwhile my apologies to anyone who is still waiting for a reply.

Hi bearkat,

Not really the answer to your question but I receive mine immediately.

Also, I wonder if you are aware of this feature (err... took me something like one year to discover it  ::) )

the delay in notification of replies has only been happening for the last week or so.

I realise that.
It's just that I receive notification (5 days late) that I have a reply to a message or a PM only to find that there is nothing there because I have probably read it already.

sorry, only trying to help.

Hopefully a tech support person will get a handle on why you are having the problem.

I am having exactly the same problem as you bearkat.

Yep, that's happening to me too.  I wonder why?

And, interestingly, I have received about 6 separate notifications for replies suppoesedly posted to the "Rootschat Meet No 3" thread (I orignally started that one!!), and when I went to read the replies there weren't any ??? ???

Hopefully some RC techy will know the answers.

I have had 20 notifications so far today!  One was a reply posted in December. ::)

Bizarre!

Bet it's my computer.
