I used to be able to see all my new messages instantly under the "Subscribed Topics" tab.

But now they aren't showing up because it doesn't subscribe me AUTOMATICALLY anymore; I have to manually opt-in to every single thread I participate in.

Seriously, just go check your settings to see how many days of history you're actually requesting for those posts.
It says "Show topics from" and then gives you a dropdown for "last day, last 2 days, last 5 days, 10..."
You probably just messed up your filter settings somewhere.

well... I find myself 😁

Not even remotely 😁

my clone was the one who said that... 😬

A brilliant clone, clearly. He would never have admitted to being your 😂

As someone once pointed out, if people actually spent more time reading instead of constantly inundating us with mindless questions... 🙄

Every single time you update your email address, you receive an automated message containing a verification link. You absolutely must click that link to maintain your posting privileges on this forum.
If you neglect to do so, it is as if you never even registered in the first place. 🙂

There is a specific sub-forum for housing matters.

You’d make an excellent moderator on this site... you're always the first one to jump in and lecture everyone.😁

Anyone who has sent an email to forum@monitor.com within the last six months has received a response. 🙄

There was one individual who failed to input a valid email address into their client, making a reply impossible, along with a few others who incessantly spam me regarding some literary ban; I simply cannot assist them because they refuse to identify themselves with a username, leaving me completely in the dark as to who they are.

Brian Vaughn5 said:Is this some kind of new development?

"Body parts from a deceased individual may be harvested for transplantation provided the deceased did not explicitly object in writing during their lifetime."

(Law of taking and transplantation of human body parts for medical purposes, The New York Times, Issue 31/80, 50/88)

Source. 😁

Brian Vaughn5 said:I honestly don't see the actual point of carrying an organ donor card if family members still have to be asked for permission anyway.

In practice, doctors usually consult the next of kin. However, according to the law of taking, they are permitted to proceed without asking, regardless of whether you possess a donor card or not.
Unless you have explicitly stated in writing during your lifetime that you refuse to donate, the option remains open.

I’m an organ donor, so if anything useful comes up, feel free to take it. 😬

Did you happen to change your email address?
I've sent over a new message containing the link.

David Harris44 said:Why am I unable to post in the other sections of the forum?

Check your email inbox. You should have received a message containing a verification link that you need to click.
Once you've completed that step, you will be granted full access.

Robert Evans said:just change that section over to a short guide for new members... 🙄

Do you honestly think anyone even bothers reading that stuff? 🙄 😁

I went ahead and changed it 😉

We regret to inform you that if this occurs, the activation link is permanently lost and the username will remain inactive.

In the event that you submitted a typo or a fake email address, please reach out to support@usforums.com providing your username and the correct email address; we will then update the record and resend the activation link.

Internet Explorer, obviously 😎
I'm currently testing out this Crazy browser, and I have to say, it doesn't seem half bad either 😉

I can't say which one reigns supreme, but I personally run Kazaa gold and have absolutely zero complaints about its performance.😉

Sarah Long said:If that’s how the software is actually built—where you just subscribe to a topic automatically or sign up for email alerts—then what on earth is the point of those first two options that I can't even use? It makes me wonder if they’re just completely useless features sitting there for no reason.

The first option, "notify admin," is just a recipe for having your inbox absolutely trashed with ads and spam. The second one actually works—it notifies you when someone replies to a thread you've posted in. You drop a comment somewhere, and you get an email once someone responds to you, regardless of whether you're officially subscribed to that specific thread or not.

Sarah Long said:By the way, where can I go to vent? 😁 😁

http://www.reddit.com/contact.php 😁 😁 😁

That’s just how the software was engineered
It runs on vBulletin 😁

It's as simple as that. If you subscribe to a specific thread, you get notified when new replies pop up. There is no other way for it to function.

You're going to have to deal with it.
There is no "I want this" or "I don't want that." It is either everything or nothing at all. 😁

Don't mention it. 😉

Subscribing to a thread means exactly what it says on the tin. You get an email notification whenever someone posts a reply 😁

There’s no point in subscribing to a thread if you aren't receiving those email alerts; that is quite literally the entire purpose of the feature.

Well, have you even bothered to look at the websites I linked for you?
And listen, when you're drafting a post, make sure you don't leave the "notify me via email" box unchecked.
It’s located right underneath the text field where you type.
