Why does it seem like debate notifications aren't working? I haven't been getting them for weeks :(

Explain the debate notifications you're referring to.

My bell button shows that I have notifications even when I don't.

Oh yeah. Mine is broken. Sometimes I get messages sometimes I don't. Sometimes I receive them in my Junk folder. I thought you were talking about the bell icon.

I already spoke to debateart.com about this. It should be somewhere in platform development if you want to find it.

My email notifications have never worked. Ive tried the 'envelope' icon { [ V ] in both settings and still no email notifications ever.

There are a few gotchas about the emails that may clear the things. So, the most obvious one is that you have to enable the notifications ( if they aren't ) in your profile section. The next one is that the emails get sent only once in 5 mins ( I think it was 5 ...) per email type, so if somebody mentions you in 2 forum posts in a time period less than 5 mins, you will get the email only about the first one. And the last one, you should check the spam folder and make sure the emails don't go there. From my side, I believe I have done everything in order to prevent the emails from going to spam but I guess it can still happen.
