PROBLEMS WITH THIS (NAS) FORUM - February 2018

I accept that this may be a "Bad" Topic, yet it needs to be highlighted, surely where "NAS" can *not* avoid seeing it, surely...

Current Problems with this Forum:
- Posts Disappear and Reappear at Random.
- Notifications are not always received (apparently).
- Editing Posts - *after* they have been replied to.
- Things such as "Groups" or "BlogPosts" or "Questions"... seem to have no meaning, and so they cannot be applied...?
(Anyone reading, you may currently check your own "Profile" to confirm this. Click upon your own "Achievements", and then upon "List of Possible Achievements".)
- ... There is a great list of "Achievements". Again, many of these have no defined meaning and so are un-achievable. (Linked to "Questions", "BlogPosts", "Ideas", "Status"...?)
- Assigning "Tags" to a New Thread seems to change constantly, and has neither Logical Order nor Meaning.

Here is the "Main" Thread, at which Comments directly to NAS are supposed to be Posted... yet much of it is completely ignored by NAS; It is only responded to by "WebPM", but for whom NAS would not have this "Forum" in the first place, I would wager...

  • The e-mail notification system is not working correctly.

    Working my way through the e-mail notifications I am finding that some are duplicated and some are triplicated. I am also receiving e-mail notifications of initial thread postings (for those that I have turned reply notifications on).

  • The e-mail notifications were not working. I have just (11.59 onwards) received 42 e-mail notifications.

  • Glad Tidings to "California". I write this to Thank You and also to Thank Caretwo, in Replying to this Thread. 

    To yourself, you may see that in my Starting Post, I wrote:

    ...Just to let you know, that I cannot monitor this myself, (I cannot EMail) and so I do Thank You and LoneWarrior much, for re-stating that trouble here.

  • If email notifications are missing, please check your Spam/Junk folder. By their nature, forum messages are sent to numbers of people (everyone participating in the thread). This tends to make them look more like spam to your email provider, so there is a tendency for them to get mis-identified. You could try white-listing the address from which they are sent, which is "National Autistic Society - our Community <info@autism.org.uk>".
