Hi Pete,
Thanks for the Reply.
I have very occasionally had the sporadic multi Notification thing, not often. When it did occur I think it was somewhere around 27, I seem to remember posting about it. Cannot remember where. The Number of Threads reporting problems are so many just recently I cannot keep track.
What you said about not getting any Notifications was interesting. I was not posting many relies to Threads in that period, so I missed any possible re occurrence of the Email Notification problem this time around. I was a bit surprised not to get a few responses to my efforts, but that is not always so unusual. There are so many problems just now, this time around it maybe went completely unnoticed, but was just another thing that contributed to some people giving up with the Forum
It is difficult to be precise about the time delay I saw. The given times given by the Forum are also sometimes a bit difficult to follow- I see different times in different parts of the Forum for the same event.. The times i did note were where I saw the reply come in, either in the Forum or in my UserCP.. Started timing then and then saw when I got the Email Notification of the reply about an hour later. But it was inconsistent. An hour was average.
There have been so many great contributors leaving, starting right back a year ago with people like Rory ( Romperstomper ) due to access problems, and coming to a peak just recently with atrocious problems and invaluable people leaving..... It almost feels like an insult to them to keep posting here..

Alan

P.s. Only recently lurked through an Old Thread, and found the problem has been going way way before my time
