So my first problem with notifications has been one that’s been going on for months. If someone quotes one person in a reply, then quotes me in that same reply, I do not get a notification for it. If I’m the first quote in their reply, I will get the notification for it.
Now, a new problem has risen: I’m not getting notifications for my own threads. It’s set to “watching.” And no notifications for it.
Anyone know if there’s a setting somewhere that I’m missing or what’s going on with these two issues?

Are you not getting notifications at all or are they delayed for a few hours?
The latter has been a new “feature” for the past couple weeks or so.

Mine WERE working again, until sometime this afternoon. Now I am not getting notifications when folks quote and reply to me. Here on the CS forum even.

I’m not getting notifications at all now, except for direct replies (where I’m the first one they reply to) in other people’s threads and likes.
I had to manually come back here to see if there were replies. It’s not even the delay thing. It’s straight up not getting them for only certain things.

Hmn. Time to corroborate, but it hasn’t quite been the two hours that it usually takes to show up, so I’ll find out when I get home I suppose.
I had the same issue. I checked my notifications, and they were set correctly. I manually entered the times that I wanted to be notified, and it’s working again.

I’ll try that and report back. Thank you so much!

I just got a reply message 5 hours after it was posted. It showed as “new”. Sigh. Super broken today which is frustrating because it was working correctly until this afternoon.

Hopefully, it works for you, too!
I just got your LIKE! Maybe you are forum magic.
EDIT - the “like” for this post showed up 35 mins after the post which is also likely 35 mins after it was “liked”. Seeing as we were having an active convo.

Having the same forum issues - about three or five hours slow to get notice. Even some notice on the CS forum when replies take a while to show up as ‘unread’ like 5 or 30 minutes later.

Yeah I’ve been getting notifications for stuff I posted at lunch.

Okay… so I’m getting notifications now. But they’re all from hours and hours ago.
I’m not getting any at all either.

I’ve been getting forum notifications delayed by ~20 min-2 hours for the past month or so.
Oddly enough, they seem to work and then not work. I got a notification that someone liked a reply I just made a few minutes ago. However, yesterday it was taking a couple of hours to get a notification.
It’s definitely odd! Thankfully, it doesn’t break the useability of the forums in any way.

Eh, yeah it kind of does. I usually have multiple threads I am active in at once and I need to know if someone replies or quotes me. Esp the GD threads that tend to go fast.
Having no clue there are replies when I am there to answer questions or clarify things, makes it hard to do that mission. I feel adrift and lost!
For chit chat threads it is not critical of course. It just makes for sadness when I miss a convo.

Some of my notifications seem to be delayed by about six hours. I’d have to verify but I think the likes come through immediately but the replies are delayed. It’s been happening on and off for awhile, but is very slow today. Also, I don’t think this is a new thing, but additional likes after the first one also don’t send a notification.

I’m getting forum notifications literally hours after the fact. I watch one thread, and got a notification for a post made 9 hours ago.

Unless you open up a tab with every thread you’ve replied to and watch them, there’s no way to have a conversation right now. It’s frustrating.
And my thread got moved to where no one will even answer the question I had about my other problem.
