I dont' even see the box for "send me an e-mail" anymore....I do see "bookmark"...
I am not sure what the "bookmark" does...I bookmarked one thread as a test.... will "bookmark" this one as well...and see if it does anything...

Nevernind, found out why. Bookmarks (4) We are introducing a new system to replace the notifications system. Using the bookmarks system, you will be able to bookmark different threads and have quick access to them from your profile screen. For each bookmark, you can specify whether you would like to receive a PM, an email, or receive no notification when a new post is made in the thread that is bookmarked. You will only receive notification that a thread has been updated one time until you view the thread again. This means that if 10 people post before you get back to a thread, you still only get notified once. Once you view the thread, you may then receive notifications again. An option will be available to set what your default notification action should be for threads you bookmark. For example, you can set your default action to be to PM you. Then any time you bookmark a thread in the future, it will automatically set that bookmark to notify you by PM of any updates.

Ok. Go to the bottom of the thread (or top). See where it says "bookmark"? Click that. Then go into your profile and click "bookmarks" next to your name. You should see another link to "manage bookmarks" and you can change the options. let me know if you figure it out ok.

Ah yep I see it! *slaps forehead*
It should work now, but thats a very round about way of doing things, oh well I guess its good if you want PM notices of replies.
Thanks Xana!

Well....apparently they are still "working on it"...because I have bookmarked a whole bunch of threads....and have not gotten any PM's....
Maybe we can start an e-mail campaign to Pro-Boards to get the e-mail notification back....I REALLY miss that function...

I miss it too......I thought it was something on my end but Yahoo checked it for me and they said it was either the site or proboards...I am going to go to my profile now and try and fix it.......
Ok, I fixed it there, so now the waiting game......

The Imperial Officers at the 501st have just gone to a Pro-Boards account... When I logged in there, they still have the "e-mail notification" option available...... Is there any way we can get that option back? I really miss it....this "bookmark" thing is the pitts....

Nope. We have a Version 4 board. It's whatever they give us, that's what's available. So the 501st are copying US, eh?
