Is BYC going to upgrade?

When you stop viewing new posts in a thread that you are watching / leave it unread after getting an alert for it, you'll stop getting alerts, because the system will assume that you're no longer interested in getting alerts if you've ignored one, so you have to go back and read it or mark it as read to start getting alerts for it again.
That is not always the case for the failed alerts. There are threads that I actively read and post in and I do not get alerts on a regular basis. Some are hit and miss on whether or not I get an alert and others just fail miserably.

The only reliable method that I have found is to click on the watched threads link.

I've got it set up with a browser favorites tab that goes to 'Unread Watched Threads'.
Works great with a running list that updates if any thread I've ever posted on, or am 'watching', comes to the top of list.
I hate alerts, and email notifications.....have most of that turned off.
Hmmm...wonders if I'll have to reconfigure all that after the upgrade?
I sure hope not cause I can't hardly remember how I did it. :lol:
 
@aart, one can get alert for quotes and tags:
