XF 1.2 Why am I receiving alerts for certain threads?

[rdn]

@Brogan
Off topic question.

Why I'm getting alert on this thread?
See screenshot.
I'm not following Jaxel nor following this forum section.
Just curious.

 

[rdn]

Same with this thread: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/how-to-deal-with-ids-when-importing.56153/#post-598461
I'm being alerted without knowing why

It was split from another thread in a forum you watch.

 

[Jeremy]

Looks like you are watching a forum.

 

[rdn]

No, If I remember correctly.
There are two forum's I'm watching:
http://xenforo.com/community/forums/announcements/
and
http://xenforo.com/community/forums/have-you-seen/

No other forums.

It was probably split from a HYS thread.

 

[rdn]

No, we can't create thread on HYS forum as a regular member here.

I get it now. Jaxel's post is from this thread: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/more-assorted-things.50098/page-8#post-565681

 

[Jeremy]

Alerts reflect the thread as it currently stands, so you received an alert for that post. Since its now a new thread, the alert updates to reflect it.

 

[Paul B]

Split from the other thread.

Another mystery solved!!
