How Many Of You Check Your Alerts?

If you get an alert from me, it’s probably a joke referencing this thread. Just so you know.

When I log in I usually run through the list of alerts, particularly checking quotes when they’re listed.

Yep

On the other hand, maybe some alerts are best left alone!

Tagging someone with the @ sign before their username sends an alert to that user. It's a useful tool when trying to herd the cats in the Secret Santa thread.

Apparently.

I feel it's courteous to respond to quotes. Unfortunately, I don't log in every day so I'm often late in doing so.

 

[Bassman65]

Yup. Gotta get rid of the red dot.

 

[mortonbriar]

Yes, I glance for red to check before I scroll through to see what is new...most years very little content is actually new, but I just can't seem to walk away, I guess you are a pretty good collection of folk for the most part...seasons greetings to you all!

 

[RPK]

Every time I log on.

I was beginning to wonder whether checking the alerts every time I log on, was an irrational compulsion. Well if it is, I see a lot of other folks have it too

 

[johnnyflake]

Now and again, I do forget to check them, but for the most part, I check them!

 

[hoosierpipeguy]

I only see alerts for quotes and when I see one, I check it out.

 

[JOHN72]

Yes, especially when a snowstorm comes, I usually carry a blanket and whiskey in the car.

My pipe world is lonely and doesn't exist outside my smoking den. I'm usually on only when smoking a pipe. the alert bell is the first thing I look at.

I also have an email stuck in my inbox. Someone had sent me a link that goes straight to a 404 page. So, I always have at least a 1 up there.

That would play such hell with my OCD, you have no idea...
