In the last few weeks I have not been/getting very few emails to threads that I am subscribed to or threads that I have posted. What could cause this all of a sudden?

I checked my subscriptions and they are all on instant notification. Am I missing something? Please help!

When you subscribe what notification do you check ? Try re setting to instant and see how that works. Do you have your email correct on the forum ? Subscribe to this topic and set it as instant and let me know how you get on.

In your profile you should also look at
Browsing Options and see how that is set.
I have my setting in >
Automatic Thread Subscription Mode
as >
Do not subscribe.
That way I manually subscribe to a topic I want to follow and set it as instant email notification.

Ok. So I tried to subscribe to this thread and it gives me only three options

1- show printable version
2-email this page
3-unsubscribe from this thread

i have subscribed to a number of threads in the past and always saw a tab to subscribe I do not see it now. Could it be my browser?
To see if anyone has posted to my threads I have to go to my statistics and look manually.

I thought I would add to this thead as I have the same issue.
I might suggest for GJ to make the default set up be some type of email notification, either instant or daily.
This is how I see all other forums set up.
Last night I replied to a post from a new user but I doubt he will see my reply as his default registration is most likely set at "no notification".
Below I copied the info I am speaking about from the user control panel.
