If it is any consolation to you Christopher I'm still getting notifications for threads I subscribed to that have been magically E-rased from existence for more than a week.

but the rest are hit and miss or non-existant for me as well.

I find it odd that Harris' policy will not allow a for sale add to be deleted, Ever! but paint one of your favorite companies / Advertisers in poor light and BAM! The entire thread and all traces are gone, except of course for the F'd up e-mail notifications that continue to roll in week/s later.

You get special service being a Moderator. .........................................................................................................................Most of the rest of us have never seen this blazing fast service the new and improved servers were supposed to provide. All I've seen is slow to no notifications and other slow performance traits. Being in bush Alaska I don't expect much but SW is ridiculous.




Morse Code would be an improvement!

No idea how moderator status changes my ability to load a page any faster.

no email notifications here either

I haven't received e.mail notifications for a couple weeks now. Just did a search & found this thread. Please add my name to the affected list of paying customers.

Just trying to throw some humor on a bad situation. From our point of view, it would not surprise me if Harris has a punitive bias towards some of us opinionated posters that do not praise their chosen advertisers.

If I were to start a thread of their "gotta have it" vendors that I avoid for my "_" reasons, it would be deleted like all the others. Probably before it even got to the server, but at a minimum as soon as Christopher or whoever is the Harris Content Sensor.

I'm about ready to cancel all my subscriptions. Cause by the time I get the notification of said post, it is two or three pages back from what is current. May as well not get them at all. IMO

Christopher, You could petition the world to redefine the word "instant" to mean "up to and including never". If that would be easier for you? :face-icon-small-coo

I unsubscribed and then re subscribed with instant notification. I have never got one notification about postings on this thread or others for that matter.

Just letting you know we haven't stopped working in this issue.
Its just been like beating our heads against a wall trying to figure out WHY some mails go right out, some are slightly delayed and others takes DAYS to go out.
