Something along the lines of "It's been 18 months already? :o" It has since been deleted. Any idea why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xendrome Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Well the story was only posted about 1 hour ago and I just did a "Show Deleted Comments" and it isn't there, maybe it never posted properly, or you have the wrong story?

Elliot B.

I'm sure it was posted over an hour ago. Also, I bookmark every article on Neowin I reply to so I can check for replies to my comments, because it doesn't have an e-mail notification system. It was definitely there the first time I went back to it, around 20 minutes later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliot B. Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 Well this is showing Deleted, and none show up, but the article post time just switch to 2 hours ago in the title, so it's only 2 hours old now. <image snipped> Then I apologize, sorry :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charisma Veteran Posted January 13, 2013 Veteran Share Posted January 13, 2013 Also, there *is* a setting under Notifications for you to be alerted when people reply to your comments/threads. Annnddd the "my content" section shows all the threads you've posted in too, with a star beside the ones that have had further comments since yours.

Charisma Veteran Posted January 13, 2013 Veteran Share Posted January 13, 2013 My Settings > Notification Options: As long as you have the right email address set up, that should work. And tick the box to "auto-follow topics I reply to" (forgot to highlight that in the screenshot). Shadrack 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charisma Veteran Posted January 13, 2013 Veteran Share Posted January 13, 2013 Comments != topics Ah, right. There is a section further down though on that same screen, to "Notify me of replies to comments I make on the front page."

Elliot B. Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 Just checked. Everything it set to e-mail, and has been for many years. Never received an e-mail when a new post reply is replied to, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charisma Veteran Posted January 14, 2013 Veteran Share Posted January 14, 2013 Can you confirm that the email address you have associated with your account is correct? And the emails aren't going to spam folder or anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+BeLGaRaTh Subscriber¹ Posted January 14, 2013 Subscriber¹ Share Posted January 14, 2013 Sorry to but in, but I too have had the same issue for months with no notifications, all is ticked on the list mentioned above for settings. It's either all or nothing as far as notifications are concerned, if set to offline you get none, if set to immediate you get spammed to death, there is no happy medium :( This still happens after a new system build and obviously a fresh login :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P. Administrators Posted January 15, 2013 Administrators Share Posted January 15, 2013 Well if you have notifications set to appear on the forums immediately (inline) AND via email, it might be that email notifications are simply not sent because the system delivered it while you were online in the forums?

I've never seen an in-line notification. In fact, I didn't know these were possible either :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan~ Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Are you sure it was deleted? I find Neowin is pretty rubbish when posting, which is the message boards fault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find Neowin is pretty rubbish when posting, which is the message boards fault Yeah as said earlier in the topic, it wasn't deleted, there is no history of it being actually posted or deleted, so it's likely a connection/lag/forum issue at that time.
