Birthday Reminders
Posted: Thu February 19, 2004 10:59 PM UTC
Hi!
I know I posted this before... but I still have the same problem: I am not receiving birthday reminders. I have not got any problems with another notices (forum postings and page comments), but for a long time the red triangle have not "blinked" for birthday news.
I guess I am not the only one, am I?

Andrea-
If you click on the 'Notices' tab, and go to the bottom of the page, all the Birthday info is there. The Notice 'triangle' hasn't 'blinked' in almost a year. It's not just you. It's everyone...

That is (to be more specific) the Birthday 'notices' aren't included in the regular notices...

OK, the birthday notices are at the bottom of the page, but I do not agree about the date you say... I have been a member only for a year, and this has been happening only the last months.
Thanks anyway.

I've been here for almost 4 years, and have seen the evolution of this site. A *major* change was made in September of 2002 (I think), and the VT Staff has been 'tweaking' the system ever since. Adding the 'blinking triangle' to the Notices button, for Birthday Notices, is the *least* of their worries. This is a VERY complex site, run on a minimal budget, with very few staff. If you have a problem with the 'Notices', contact www.feedback@vtourist.com and ask them... thassall...

Well stated Jeff....very few know just what it takes to provide the "care & feeding" and development of a major web site. G_ and Co are to be congratulated.

Fairies are supposed to know everything! Not to be reminded! Only mortals like us need reminders, that's why ;-)
