Jenny (Reading Envy) (readingenvy) | 2898 comments Because of my # of friends and groups, I get updates in daily digests. Sword and Laser, ever since going video and increasing the fan base, has stopped showing up in those updates. I KNOW you all are posting like crazy.

Just wondering if I was the only one... I didn't change any settings on my end.

It's GR. They did an update and lots of stuff gets screwed up when they do updates.


message 3: by Kris (new)

Kris (kvolk) mine are coming but they are slow...


message 4: by AndrewP (new)

AndrewP (andrewca) | 2670 comments Same here, no digest but I do get notifications of posts, or messages in my inbox, within ten minutes or so.

terpkristin | 4407 comments I'm missing one of my digests but I'm getting tons of instant notifications of new posts here. I blame all the new members (ok "blame" is the wrong word...I "attribute it to" all the new members)....too many posts to keep up with!

This.

Aeryn98 | 176 comments Anyone figure this out yet? Or are the digests a thing of the past.

I have seen an update since we were on 1Q84.

Joseph | 2433 comments I went in a while back and reset my notification preferences, which seemed to help for a week or two, but now I'm not getting anything group-related again.

(And when I was regularly getting digests, I'd often get two or three copies of the same digest. Go figure.)


message 10: by AndrewP (new)

AndrewP (andrewca) | 2670 comments I have now been getting mine again for the last 2 days :)


message 11: by Kris (new)

Kris (kvolk) I noticed also that if you don't use the updates or visit the site the frequency goes way down.

Mine too.. then I went on vacation and it got completely out of hand, so I'll have to go back and comment on the threads I actually care about. Still glad the bug is fixed.

Yes, the way it is supposed to work - it notifies you the first time someone responds to a thread that you have demonstrated interest in, and won't notify you again until you check back in.

Casey | 654 comments I've noticed a lack of update notifications the last few days, am I the only one?

Oh okay sigh at least I know it's not just me then :)

Edit: because I can't spell.

Keidy | 525 comments THANK GOODNESS! I JUST sent an email to the goodreads people telling them that I'm not getting anymore notification updates since Sunday morning. Little that I know that if I went to the Sword and Laser group that a ton of people are having that VERY problem! It's irritating how dependent I am on those notification but it's usually pretty exciting to see all this activity on things you're interested in. I feel kinda lost just manually checking each group to see what's been updated. I hope they fix this soon! >.<


message 17: by terpkristin (new)

terpkristin | 4407 comments Yep, here too. I thought all of a sudden the group got eerily quiet.


message 18: by Jane (new)

Jane Higginson | 165 comments Im sorry this is happening to a few of us but at the same time im glad its not just me!! I have some notifications tonight but most of today and all yesterday I didnt get any and I belong to the sword and laser book group and the vaginal fantasy group as well as a couple of others so I was fairly certain the groups didnt all take a day or two off!!


message 19: by AndrewP (new)

AndrewP (andrewca) | 2670 comments It's been okay for me since early May, up until this weekend that is. Now it's back to a 2 or 3 day delay for the digest and very few notifications.


message 20: by [deleted user] (new)

Mine stopped over the weekend. But they've just now started again, so hopefully whatever it was that was wrong has now been fixed.


message 21: by Keidy (new)

Keidy | 525 comments Yup! It's been fixed for me too! Though I think it might've been the fact that I emailed them about the problem. Or at least I'd like to think that's the reason mines was fixed. Yay for normalcy! ^_^v
