[Behr]

Behr is trolling me with my own troll.

I never did finish the 7 habits though.

You think you're the only one smart enough to have thought of that?

 

[malinoisvol]

I turned them all off and now I have them all back on.

I'm working on a hypothesis pertaining to the @ button.

O-Tay.

Still curious if you turn say the like alert off overnight, and I give you a bunch of likes, will they show up when you turn it back on?

 

[malinoisvol]

Is this @ thang on? Hellurrrr

Yes

 

[malinoisvol]

I see Behr turned off the "Stalk Me" button. Lol

 

[Behr]

Yes

I'm working with Freak on getting sound on alerts so I can annoy the Waffle House waitress and wake you up in the middle of the night with quotes, likes and chit.

 

[malinoisvol]

Guess not. O well and sigh.

What?

 

[Behr]

What?

Seriously? You got an alert for that?

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Yes, in the Alerts tab. Not a sound that I know of. My volume is off.

 

[malinoisvol]

Got an alert saying you replied to this thread.

I had an idea that, maybe, the alerts are set up in some kind of pecking order to cut down on the number of alerts one receives from a single post.

Scenario: If X posted a reply to @xyz in the "Last" thread, then, instead of 3 alerts being sent, one for the new post, one for the reply, and one for the @, only one alert would be sent due to the pecking order.

The REPLY alert seems to be #1 in the pecking order, thus, in this scenario, only ONE alert was/Is sent to XYZ.

Therefore, with the above scenario in mind, my hypothesis WAS this, if I posted @Behr in a thread he has never been in before, he would get an @ alert because it would be the only priority in the "Alert pecking order". Made cents: to me. So, I tried it out.

I went into the Gaming Forum, found the Thread with the fewest posts so I could ensure Behr hadn't ever posted in it. I posted @Behr about 20 minutes ago AND nothing.

So my computer programming/science career was short lived (22mins).

And now I'm back to being the small brained poster that i was 23 mins ago.

I was kidding about the sound. Seems you're one of very few getting alerts for "Mentions" (@), none of us regulars in the Zone are receiving them.

Was just curious.

Don't see you around much but you like the new setup okay?

 

[malinoisvol]

Yes, in the Alerts tab. Not a sound that I know of. My volume is off.

Was the alert for being mentioned or that Behr replied to your post?

Yea I could have told you that whistle britches. Lulz.

Kidding aside, Freak tried the same thing with me, trying to tag me in the PF the other day. Nadda.

I didn't reply to him.

I though you said you got the one in the politics forum? So are you not getting them here or the politics forum but you get them everywhere else?

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Actually, I guess I didn't get an alert from the mention. Just the replies.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

I miss the old mobile version, @Behr

We did figure out that if you’re watching a thread and someone tags you, you won’t get an alert for both the tag and the watch, just the watch. I think.

You're correct. I forgot.
I got that one from you, but didn't get the one from Volly in the FF.

I just started "watching" 1 thread today. I've gotten no tag alerts from anyone anywhere. Mal tried to @ me in the gameing forum.
