I keep all of mine turned on all the time, too. No, I don't have this problem. I wonder what's going on? Reckon mylot is going through some maintenance problems? I hope you can get this fixed. Kathy.

I always once accepting a friend the notification goes on.Other wise it is pointless getting friends.I have never noticed if I don't get them to be honest normally up to my eyeballs in my mail box but will watch out for that.

I do keep them on, but am like you, some I am not notified on. I have at least one person that I have to go to their profile and check because I am never notified of theirs.

From a similar discussion I concluded that this is the case for a lot of us. I think some of it has improved, but everyday I still find people in discussions that I have not seen in ages and have even thought they have left the site.

I don't have all my notifications turned on, but I have noticed this problem with at least a few people that are on my friends list who I have set on. I have noticed these particular friends started discussions yet I never get notifications about it. I don't know why this happens other than It must be one of mylot's many glitches.

This is a really good discussion and I am sure there are a lot of people who have different opinions when it comes to the notifications here on mylot,I am sure there are a lot of people who keep their notifications on,on their friends because they think it makes it easier to keep up when their friends have started a new discussion ,and then I am sure there are people who keep the notifications off because they think that is a waste of time and just gets in the way,especially if they spend a lot of time on mylot,and do not like checking their email a lot,when it comes to me I have notify on for several of my friends including my fiance,so that way it will send me a notification when they start a discussion,I also have it so anytime someone responds to one of my discussions or comments to me,it sends me an email letting me know,I recently started doing this,because I cleaned out my email and it is no longer full of junk like it used to be,and when it comes to having problems, even though I have notify on for my fiance,it never emails me when she starts a discussion and neither of us can figure out why,we think it might be because she referred me,but we are not sure,have a great day,good luck with your life,and all of your mylotting goals,and Happy Posting.

I totally have this problem and I hate it since I have to go and dig around for the new discussions my friends have started. I have a few of my favorites members that I don't get notifications from even though everyone on my friends list is on so I should get them but I don't maybe we only get a limited amount of them see their discussions maybe the first 25? I don't know..but I guess I will be digging fro them till it is fixed or I go looney..

I keep my notification always online like you. I can see my friends discussion and I am updated, I will post my response when it have my interest and I will just leave some that I don't want to response too. However I don't have a problem about notification, you have to ask Mylot admin for it. Kindly email them.

I have this problem too. I have to search for one particular friend to see if she posted a discussion. I have complained many times but nothing happens.It is not good as if looks like you are ignoring these friends and not answering their posts.And thenm, if I forget to search or there is not enough time for me to do so then it lookes like I am ignoring that friend. I think that other people must suffer from this too. Surely it can't be just us?

Same with me. I am not sure why this is, so I usually just check to see if a friend has posted anything interesting by manually checking. A bit laborious I guess but still gets the job done

it's a convenient way to keep stealth status in online communication tools. In this way, i know which friend is on-line. Once, i have something to share with them, i can talk with them immediately.

I have all my notifications turned on, the only thing I find I'm not notified of is if someone makes a comment on my posted discussion then a different user makes a comment on that comment...make sense?

YES, That 's the way it's suppose to work. THAT IS WHAT MY DISCUSSION WAS TALKING ABOUT. I leave all mine on all the time but i don't always get notified. I don't know if it's a mylot thing or that people just don't have you turned on. Seems like alot of people don't turn all there's on like i do. HOPE U HAVE A NICE FRIDAY.

Hi My friend...so in order for me to be notified when a friend post a new discussion, I should turn all the notifications ON?

I have every single notification turned on, but there are three people on my friend list that I never get notifications from. I contacted mylot a long time ago, and they kept saying they would fix it. Of course they never have. One of the people whose notifcations I don't get said I'm not the only one who doesn't get hers. Apparently a lot of her friends don't get her notifications.

I don't turn on the notification, for i don't like to receive plenty of email in my inbox. Actually i tried to turn on the notification and i receive thousand of email a day. Too many to handle so i decided to switch it off.

I don't receive notification about all my friends who start discussions. Someone told me that if they don't have you 'turned on' (if you know what I mean) you won't receive notification even though yours are on. Does that make sense? I don't know if that is correct but it would explain why I receive notification from some but not from all. Can anyone confirm this?

GOOD MORNING PAULA, I have found out from some of the responses i have gotten that everybody does not keep their notifications turned on . I believe this is some of the reason we don't get them but i also think mylot needs to do some work on this problem to. I DON'T SEE HOW MYLOT KEEPS UP W/EVERYTHING LIKE THEY DO BUT THINK THEY NEED TO CONCENTRATE ON SOME MORE IMPORTANT THINGS & LEAVE SOME OTHER THINGS ALONE. Have a good day, thanks for your response.
