Repeated PM alerts for same PM - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

thirtybubba · 08-06-2009, 07:03 PM

When I get a PM alert, I click on it and click on the button that will open it in another window. It does. Then, I answer it and close the window and return to surfing through the forum. Then I get another PM alert, and when I click that one through I find the same message. This can happen three or four times. What's happening?

Yeah, and I responded to a thread started by Bamboozle (What would you do for a crap ton of money) last night and it keep showing up in new posts forum even though there hasn't been any more posts to that thread. Weird.

Do you use your back button to go back to surfing Bubba? cos you'll keep getting the PM notification that way.

I have learned this. LOL.

Dunno about the Bam thread tho Suki

I have that happen with the back button too. I usually refresh the page after I read the PM.

There is a Mark Forums Read link on the bottom of the forum that might solve the new post problem.
