Notifications

Just a heads up for the jounalists who are accustomed to my responses on your journals, the notifications are getting to me. Yet again, I am amazed at how fast notifications start looking like spam. It sure is easy for a good idea to turn into an imbalanced extreme.


I am going to try waiting a day or so before I respond for the sake of lightening the notification stream.


Anybody having any luck at finding ways to manage the notification spam effect?

It seems to be a recurring theme in life that good solutions grow into overwhelming problems. Oh for the love of balance. . . Sigh. . .

I getting notifications about people I've never even "met" on DS. ???
Good intentions. Rocky roads.
It reminds me of the GPS voice on Hubby's "smartphone". He now turns it on solely to yell at it that he doesn't need to know all that.

Reminds me of the joke about a manly GPS. It has only one response:

You are not lost, Dear. You do not need directions.

Putting my inner sexist back in cage now. . .

I tend to ignore the notifications now. I let them all show in the list so the notification nimber goes away but dont read any of them then just do as noomee said. Check the boards im on, check my hugs and messages and reply to what i want.

I'm like lovelilbeany, there are so many journal notifications that I can't keep up. We've asked for help with them in the CL forum but haven't heard back yet.

I have the technical background to offer empathy to the DS staff. The magic keystrokes which allow me to have the interface of my dreams are far from justy on the other side of the help desk.

Then we get to the demographics of dream interfaces. One user's dream is another user's nightmare. . . Plan on it.

I don't know what will end up being done about this if anything?..... I get a ton of them as well

I know a complaint before was that people weren't getting notifications and now are we ever getting them.....lol..... Notifications on our notifications and then some

I don't know the answer.... As soon as I click on notifications though and scroll down a little it's over

I guess write on the DS members board ....

That's where the DS staff sees what members are wanting and that we hope for change in certain areas.... I'll put up a link for the board for anyone who doesn't have it....... xo

    Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
