Alerts

Somehow I've triggered the alert button?, and now I have 4 pages of alert threads and still growing.
How do I stop it?
Thanks,
Howard

 

Just above the HAMB banner on the right is the alert tab. It's the one with a lightning bolt on it.
Pass your cursor over it, no need to click or anything, and a short list of alerts show up.
Scroll to the bottom of that list and you will see "alert preferences".
Click on that and you can then turn off any and all alert notifications.
I think that will take care of it for you...

 

dammit Howard, Ryan and I told you not to ever touch that button!...now see what you did?
I'm telling Mom...

 

maybe theres a pill you can take to make it stop?

 

Thanks,
I have done that several times, and , no change, but, I'll try it again.

if it lasts 4 hours see a doctor

 

Hold your cursor over this icon..



scroll down to ALERT PREFERENCES

You will have 13 alert preferences to choose from.

If any are checked you will receive a alert. HRP

 

Danny,
Yes, I've done that several times but I'm still getting alerts, six pages worth, so far.
Thanks,
Howard

 

Are all the boxes checked?,if so deselect them and then delete the 6 pages.

They wont go away until you delete them.HRP

 

I'm also getting alerts for threads I'm not watching or subscribed too, tried deleting now what?

 

Guys ,I'm sorry I have led you down the wrong path,I was trying to figure out why you couldn't delete your alerts,,I was surprised when I noticed I had copied the wrong ICON.

You need to hold the cursor over the ALERT ICON and then click on alert preferences.

I deselected the first 5 and no longer receive all the emails. HRP

HELP....I'm receiving all types of "Alerts" and have followed the suggestions shown in this thread with no success? Several boxes were checked and I cleared and saved as required but still receiving alerts. Does anyone have any suggestion on how to stop this problem?

 

I too am having the ALERTS on everthing problem..I've tried several times, even un checking all but they all keep appearing..I have to go to watched threads in the alert list to find what I am watching..Recently a few watched threads showed up on e mail from long ago from when I used E mail notification..I'll go try again to change some thing!

 

Thats odd, cause I'm not gettin any, and people have been respnding to my watched threads....wierd.
