Took me awhile to catch up. I was getting alerts on this thread, but not now. I haven't changed any settings. I clicked on Watched Threads, and discovered this isn't the only thread I'm not getting alerts for. I know they are still working hard on this site, so I'll grin, and bear it.
I noticed that with my alerts, when I get one for a thread and I don't go to that thread, that's the last alert I will get until I read that thread. Then I start getting alerts again for that thread. I hope that this makes somekinda sense to you, this how my alerts seem to work.
