Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums General Discussion Flashing e-mail icon

I have a website question... my e-mail envelope icon (on this website, just to be clear ) has been flashing since I signed up... even when I have no messages. Is this normal? I would think that a flashing icon means new mail but there is none. How do I fix this? (the flashing icon I mean - not the lack of new mail - ha ha ha)

Thanks

Mine has been flashing for about a year and a half. They kept telling me that they're working on it, but I haven't brought it up since January.

You PM Mark the moderator, and typically he fixes it. Sorry that hasn't worked for Beckee though!

I've given up on the flashing e-mail icon. It's been flashing since day 1.

Ok, good to know. Thanks everyone! I'll try ColinsMum's suggestion and if that doesn't work I won't worry about it.

ah! And I've been wondering the whole time about what I've been doing wrong!

I ignore mine also.

I feel so left out.

Hi everyone,

We've been waiting for our Bulletin Board providers (UBB Threads) to update to their next version, but it's been taking much longer than expected. Previously we were able to manually get in there via SQL to remove the flashing envelope, but it was finicky and caused the board to crash a few times, so we're trying to wait it out. As of now, all new users are likely experiencing the issue.

I apologize for the delay and annoyance, I'm sure many of you are tired of seeing that flashing envelope. I'll check with our IT team about anything pending.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Mark
