We all missed the post where you said you were going to open your wallet and take the fiver out. For a Yorkshireman, that would have been a major event, like the opening of an Egyptian Tomb.

I know where I've posted so not hard to find new activities on such the threads.

If I forget where I've posted I go to my own profile & it tells me my recent posts.

I wouldn't want constant emails just to tell me someone has posted anyway.

My email box isn't used for anything else because nobody sends me emails, so I just get notifications and delivery receipts from the two places every year that I order stuff off the net from. It would be even less than that if they had a shop...

So 'Clogging' isn't going to be a problem....
I do respond to lots of topics though, and to check them manually would take me an age....Be like painting the Forth Road Bridge..I'd be on here all day!.
So the first thing I do when I switch on my computer is to check my emails...
I'd be lost without that method.....

I have written a message about this in the contact staff section so hopefully normal service will be resumed as soon as possible
I'm the same Bruce, lots of topics I was subscribed to have been wiped out, even though they still appear in my subscribed threads list in 'Control Panel' I checked in the control panel and my tick box had been cancelled, so I've got to start all over again....
Did you find out any further information what has gone wrong Bruce?
