I am new to this site and some aspects of it are quite different to sites that I am familiar with, so maybe I may not have everything as it should be in my user-CP.
As far as I can comprehend, I should have everything set such that, whenever someone posts in a thread that I have created, then I should receive an email notifying me of that.(hopefully an instant email)
As it is, I am only getting an email maybe one time in ten.
I check my email and there will be no site notifications; I go immediately to the site and there may be a dozen responses in my threads, some of them hours old.
Also, on the thread itself, if I click the little thread tools icon, in the flyout menu, subscribe to this thread will be checked, even though it is not listed in my subscriptions.
If I then uncheck "subscribe...", it will then subscribe me to the thread; this seems to me to be tail-backwards to what one would expect.
Thanks for any and all help.

Re: E-mail Notifications ???
I believe that you only get an email notification if someone quotes you in their response, as I did now, to which I hope you received said notification. Unless you were subscribed, where you'd get email notifications to all responses, so onward...BuckSkin wrote:whenever someone posts in a thread that I have created, then I should receive an email notifying me of that.
I think you may be mis-conceptualizing that check symbol as a setting, which is understandable.BuckSkin wrote:Also, on the thread itself, if I click the little thread tools icon, in the flyout menu, subscribe to this thread will be checked, even though it is not listed in my subscriptions.

Think of the menu options as an action to do, rather than a current disposition of something.Joe
