I usually use the notification emails from Gather to go to the posts of my friends. Since I’m not getting these emails I will have to go to the sites of my friends who comment on my photos and see if they have posted anything lately. I hope I don’t miss any of your posts.

One time I did not get emails from Gather for about five days. If any of you know who I should get in touch with please leave me a link or notify them for me.

I"m having the same issues on and off.
William M. Apr 3, 2012, 7:21pm UTC
It looks like they could get it straight. I could be the fault of My ISP. Either way it is getting old.

I hope they get it fixed for you soon!
William M. Apr 3, 2012, 7:22pm UTC
Thank you, Sheila. I hope so.
Karen E. Apr 3, 2012, 6:38pm UTC
You can click on the Home button, and see what has been posted by your friends...
William M. Apr 3, 2012, 7:23pm UTC
Thanks for the advice, Karen. I did not know that.
Karen E. Apr 3, 2012, 7:39pm UTC
Yes, and you can also view the most popular, the most recommended and the like. It's pretty cool!
William M. Apr 3, 2012, 8:02pm UTC
Sounds like it, Karen. I'm catching up a little going to the sites of those who comment on my posts. I know I'll miss some.
Karen E. Apr 3, 2012, 8:22pm UTC
Good luck!
William M. Apr 3, 2012, 11:52pm UTC
Thanks.

before I signed off last night I was getting back some of hte ones I already commented on
William M. Apr 3, 2012, 7:23pm UTC
Crazy isn't it, Larry.
Larry H. Apr 3, 2012, 7:29pm UTC
yeah
Tami G. Apr 3, 2012, 6:59pm UTC
I am having the same thing but I thought perhaps Gather is just getting so very slow that there was none for me.
William M. Apr 3, 2012, 7:23pm UTC
I think they are having this trouble a lot, Tami.
Crin Forbes Apr 3, 2012, 8:26pm UTC
I think it would be easier to notify us when Gather mail notification work a full 24...

Mine was taking a nap during the afternoon, now it works...
William M. Apr 3, 2012, 9:11pm UTC
You are right, Crin. I'm glad you are getting yours now. Maybe I will soon.
Nancy S. Apr 3, 2012, 10:36pm UTC
It was late afternoon before I got any today. It feels like someone is playing with an on and off switch.
William M. Apr 3, 2012, 11:53pm UTC
It sure is hectic, Nancy.
Angela M. Apr 3, 2012, 11:16pm UTC
I emailed them this is the reply I got
Hi Angela Metzger,

Yes, we are aware that the site has been experiencing intermittent slowness and timeouts, but at this time our development team is still studying the issue and working on a solution. We're very sorry for the inconvenience!


Best,

Thanks for trying to help, Angela. You are a sweetie. No emails is about as bad as what he says they are working to correct.
Angela M. Apr 4, 2012, 8:36pm UTC
I asked about the emails too but he really didnt say a thing on that topic so i guess he knows that too
William M. Apr 4, 2012, 9:35pm UTC
I guess so, Angela. Thanks for everything.
Angela A. Apr 4, 2012, 12:13am UTC
Like I said before, since I switched to Yahoo mail, I have not had problems receiving Gather mail in my inbox. So, you could email your provider and see if it's a problem on their end.
William M. Apr 5, 2012, 1:28pm UTC
I believe it ended up being Gather, Angela. Coming in now.
Angela A. Apr 5, 2012, 11:56pm UTC
Glad to know you're getting messages again... Like I said before, lots of people were reporting Gather mail as spam, and email providers would block the mail... But, I guess it was Gather's fault this time
William M. Apr 6, 2012, 12:04am UTC
I'm not sure whose fault. I just hope it gets straight for good.
Cynthia C. Apr 4, 2012, 8:37am UTC
I couldn't even get on Gather yesterday! Was getting my emails but gather wouldn't load for me.

Thank you so much for sharing with Sadies Points
William M. Apr 5, 2012, 1:29pm UTC
Gather has been having lots of problems lately.

You are very welcome.
Diane Huizenga Apr 4, 2012, 10:27am UTC
I rarely have that problem, hope Gather gets this mess straightened out.
William M. Apr 5, 2012, 1:29pm UTC
I hope so too, Diane. It can be frustrating.
Mylinda Elliott Apr 4, 2012, 4:05pm UTC
Some days I get emails some days I don't get many. Some days I can get on gather and some days I have trouble. I don't know what the deal is. I hope your's gets straightened out.
William M. Apr 5, 2012, 1:30pm UTC
Thanks, Mylinda. I'm getting them now. Don't know how long it will last.
M L M. Apr 4, 2012, 4:51pm UTC
Yahoo mail is where I receive my replys and comments from Gather, the problem I'm having is that once I answer an email, it'll show up as brand new the next day. I have never had that problem with my Gmail accounts, I just don't know if I should switch my gather stuff to it.
William M. Apr 5, 2012, 1:31pm UTC
I wish I could offer advice, M L M. I just don't know.
M L M. Apr 5, 2012, 3:10pm UTC
Thanks for trying anyway.
Marilyn (PaintsOnSlate) S. Apr 4, 2012, 7:19pm UTC
I was going to suggest you contact Chuck but I see Angela posted what they said.
William M. Apr 5, 2012, 1:31pm UTC
I appreciate it, Marilyn. I'm getting them now.
