Because it will only appears for few minutes. but it is something similar to this:

Interesting. I never see this myself, but try and grab a screen shot it it happens again ;)
 
oh I didnt know that. Does it also work for new conversation ? And can xf admin make it work on forumhome as well ?
and What about that lil star in alert dropdown list. I never seen that before and now its showing for everyone.
 
The little star indicates the "latest" alerts - they are really helpful in going back to your most recent alerts when you get sidetracked or lost in a long thread - as well as differentiating from previous/earlier alerts that you've probably already looked at. (y)
 
okay make sense. But is this something new ?
They have versions of this on vBulletin. The first version I used was a free one that only appeared after a page refresh or if you went to another page. Then a guy called gibigbig created one that controlled where the alert box shows. Daviate created one called vBSocial that resembled Facebooks, Dragonbyte came out with a paid version that lets you change the colors and stuff. Thankfully all this stuff is free and comes default for Xenforo.
