• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

I have always had this enabled in my options and yet it seems I never get the popup when I get a new private message. I thought it was my browser or something, but then I just noticed that the same function is working on some of the other vB sites I visit on occasion.

Just curious if it is not working for me only, has been disabled, etc. I know I have not been at the site as long as most, so maybe I missed an earlier topic on it or something.

Thanks,
Grentz
 
I'm pretty sure [H]ard|Forum has it disabled. I used to use it as well, but now I just check in the top right hand corner of the forum window and see if my Unread total registers anything besides 0. Granted, I did enjoy the popups, but I think it was disabled globally some time back.
 
It is disabled here. The feature requires an extra database query with every page load. Probably not a big deal on smaller forums, but it all adds up here and we are trying to keep things running lean and smooth. :)
