bug Not getting email notifications on certain topics

[MightyJordan]

Very weird bug, and as far as I know, it's only happening on two threads; the Cyanide and Happiness thread, and the big WWE thread.

The only things these threads have in common are that I've made a lot of posts in them (around a few hundred or so; I've lost count). I've tried following the topics using the button at the top, but it doesn't work; it looks like it's gone through, but when I refresh the page, it's not actually gone through.

Ooh, I just remembered another bug that happens on these threads too. When I make a new post using the Quick Reply box, I just get the little loading squares in the top-right endlessly cycling around, but if I refresh the page, my new post is there.

Anyone else been suffering from these problems?

[MightyJordan]

Bump. Got another thing to add to the bug...

This page appears if I post using the full editor in the offending threads mentioned above. Is there any hope of a fix for this? It's only been happening since the last major IPB update, so I can only assume it's something to do with that; perhaps one of the coders could shed some light on the situation? :)

This is a major problem with big threads. Like WWE, The Thread Formerly Known As, Religion Thread, Battlefield 3 and the list goes on and on and on.

And that Database error, I am getting it a lot lately, when I post in one of these threads. :(

No one seems to care

Ahh, I'm glad it's not just me getting these problems then.

Have asked the devs to look into it because I wouldn't know where to start! :p

[Muhammad Farrukh]

Neobond, we have been asking devs to fix the editor for a looooong time.

Even sent one a personal message, but no response. :(

Because you're asking the wrong person, I'm not a developer/coder! :p

I said, we have been asking the devs. not you :p

[Steven P. Administrators]

OH :p

[MightyJordan]

OK, now this thread's broken for me. Getting the same issues as in the other threads, and not even getting email notifications. :(

That's because this thread has been blessed by the presence of an unknown person

:p

Hmm, I wonder if my auto following threads somehow breaks it for everyone else or resets notifications? (I auto-follow threads I start or participate in).

[MightyJordan]

Thread revival!

I don't know if anything's happened behind the scenes, but the problems have finally been fixed for me! :D

Potentially fixed yes, it's an issue that can happen if a spammer posts in the thread. I'm not 100% sure the notification issue related to it is resolved, but we can wait and see.

For the last week I have not had any notifications for any of the threads I am subscribed to, I have gone into my account settings and reset the notification options but am still not getting notifications for any of the topics I sub/reply to :(

[edit]

Just thought I would check "my Notifications" and there is nothing noted since March of this year, even this thread is not listed :(
