Noobie tech support issue
December 7, 2015 at 7:27 pm
Hi guys,
Sorry to bother with something that is probably really obvious, but when I subscribe to a thread, at the bottom it says "notification method: none." Or something to that effect. How can I change this setting so that I receive email notifications on specific threads? Again, sorry, I feel like I should have been able to figure this one out for myself. Chalk it up to a blonde moment

Don't think that's possible with the current form software setup.
For me, I have Tapatalk installed on my phone so that I get push notifications for quotes, mentions, and thread subscriptions. I generally use mobile version of the site for mod duties, so tapatalk exists primarily for notifications.
It is a great way to use the forums, though.

I believe this is a question for Tiberius. If I'm not mistaken, we shut off the email notifications for reasons I am currently not remembering.

Guys, didn't Tibs deactivate this recently due to technical glitches?

The retro-drive had a monotonically recursive anomaly.
It was truly awful.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Thanks for the replies everyone! Didn't realize there was a mobile version of the site. Maybe I'll check out Tapatalk. Thanks again!

Just keep in mind what we're using for a server these days:

Yes, if memory serves there was a compatibility issue about Hotmail.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

That's code for
