We would love your feedback on a new digest email we are working on.

Yes, this forum is a mess. A few things have improved, but the "feature" that has disabled pasting images into a post is unforgivable. I am trying to use this thing and you make it even HARDER!!

So now you get Email like a scattered Jive inbox notifications mixed in with all sort of mail that you can deal with  IMO it should not be mixed into users emails processing which they process using some mail application in their schedule.  Switching between application should not be required. Site Notification and processing them should be part of this site. 

Navigation, Sorting, Searching, Notifications on the web site need to be useful, functional and smooth.  Formatting need to be improved navigating  this web site is a mess finding something is a challenge with none functional search.  When is a better user experience coming. 

Not true JJMack. I initially turned them off but have Reinstated them selectively with much better results. I have turned off all Web base notifications, the little Pop Ups that IF you were quick enough to click on took you to the page the pop up was for. But that seems to be a Test in Futility.

I know only recieve emails about post I have started or one I have replied to when there is a reply or a thumbs Up (Kudo, What the Bloody heck is a Kudo).

Don't do email to much junkmail these days. Keep communication on this site give us a usable inbox,  notification, digest.  The first thing one does here is turn off all Email from this site in one's profile.  

Nicholas,

In this mess ... which I think JSM has properly (if perhaps not gently) named ... there are several threads between the ACP forum, the Moderators forum, and the Back Room forum dealing with email struggles.

There are quite a few lengthy, detailed responses from folks very experienced at typical forum email notifications and usage and working from emails and other notifications. I suggest you go looking for them.

Yea, it's a pain. But understand, this is what ALL of us face trying to keep up with anything here. It is incredibly frustrating and time consuming. As NONE of us are getting paid, well ... being supposed to waste our time trying to navigate this mess instead of helping the Userbase gets way past annoying. Fast.

I had 27,152 points in the old system, btw ... rather a bit of experience helping users. And navigating forums. Just to make it clear I'm not some silly little kid.

We are certainly hoping a number of nasty issues get fixed soon. But it was a tremendous shock to have this mess rolled out so bloody well incomplete.

Most Sincerely,

R. Neil Haugen

I will not download the attached file. And that whatever you think is a Good Idea about email digests, or even email notifications, for this forum is probably wrong. I come to that conclusion simply from the way the forum is designed. A MESS!
