Not getting alerts for watched threads

So, the issue was present even before the web site update, but after it happened it just got worse. Basically, I'm not getting alerts when watched threads are updated by OP.

In last 3 days 18 different threads had new chapters posted and I got only 1 alert. Out of 18. I have to manually go through the forum sorting by "last threadmark" to see if the story I set to be watched has updated or not.

I double checked my preferences and it is set to alert when "The thread starter replies to a watched thread", which is when a new chapter of a story is posted and thread marked by OP.

Would be nice to see this issue resolved, as it's quite annoying to have to check everything manually once or twice a day as if not to miss an update.
 
I have the same issue, the problem in one story started for me when it turned to threadmark 26 (as in, the page turn for threadmarks), then it stopped sending out threadmark alerts. Before that it still works, at least in one thread.

Yeah, I have no clue why this is happening.. Didn't even get an alert of your response 😕
 
Happening to me also. Meanwhile, I seem to get alerts for non-OP replies even if I didn't click / navigate to read the prior one(s).

If it happens with just checking your alerts, maybe click on "Preferences" in your alert dropdown and then check if "Generate new alerts without reading threads" has a check. If it has a check, uncheck it.
