Anyone else experiencing phantom notifications or having read a thread, it's still appearing in your followed threads as if there was a new post?
Then when trying to reply to @Scepticlescribe post I got this IMG_3925.PNG

Also when I typed @Scepticalscribe above I didn't get the usual pop up of possible user names.

So is it just me?

Yes, actually, @Apple fanboy, I have just received that very notification - when trying to read a post of yours written in reply to one of mine (in the 'privates' section of the forum, which is where most of these odd notifications appear!

There may be some truth in that.......with our extremely busy social lives and all of that.
What you trying to say? I'm actually out tomorrow night!

(so might not have as many posts about tea or my day at work for you to read!)

Yes, the "alerts" system is more than a bit off-kilter tonight, methinks.
