hey you know when you reply to a thread or something you begin to watch it by default and receiving notifications?

well this works fine but after 4 or more replies from other users, it seems you stop receiving notifications for that thread :/

Until you read the thread again - email notification only goes out at first update.

Something I asked to be changed but got outvoted 100 to 1

I'd happily watch a thread by the email responses.

I find it sends you the notification after it has been updated but if you do not view that thread it does not notify you again until you have viewed that thread again

If you have been told there is an update and you dont check it you wont get any further updates until you visit the thread. I have the same prob because I will often just read the update on my email and not get around to checking the thread... Especially at work :rolleyes
