It never worked. I have it set for that. But if you want to see if someone replied to a thread you participated in, go to 'user cp' and click on view subscribed threads, and all the threads that someone replied to will be there :)

Trust me I went to a site EXACTLY like this (no not Teamxbox) and every thread that I replied in sent me an e-mail. Got quite rather annoying.:mad: Just my opinion.

That is why you *should* have the option of choosing whether or not you want to be notified of a reply/post. AND it *should* work. ;)

I hate having to sift through the forum to find my post and see if it has replies. Need to have little red number that would represent new post of from the replies number. I want a damn email notification......because I am lonely. Set up an email account just for replies and you won't have to worry about spam. I have 12 email accounts and 4 are heavily used. It works, try it.

Take my advice above. Go to 'user cp' and right there are all the threads you participated in. It isn't that hard to do. Also it isn't hard to remember what threads you participated in. Just go to ones that have replies in them.

Yeah it is an annoying option.

If you wanna see if someone replied to a thread just check it..How hard is that?

If it says there are new messages then there are new messages, if it says you were the last to post it means that your last post sucked and no one has anything to say about it. :)

Since my first visit to this site i've noticed that the poll question does not change even after i answer it over and over like 7 times.
I hope some day i will see something different from "best fighting game"

Try hitting results. After you vote hit 'results'. That should work.

Yup, espescially on those *hot* threads. I made this mistake once in another forum, never again.

yea, like the mail I got when you replied :D

I also noticed it seems to be a bunch of older threads that this keeps happening to me.

Well since the forums switch urls, It seems to work now. I never really wanted to use this option.. just for certain posts or threads... I hardly ever use it. I just seemed to notice it a long time ago and wanted to bring it up, this is an old ass thread by the way. ;)
