i really want the app now , oh and to able to reply to others like on ep rather than always having to type in @ and their username for them to know youre talking to them

An app will come in due time, but new functionality for all platforms is considered more important. The website works great on mobiles too. :)

@CallmeHopelessNotRomantic: I knew that would be your favorite! ^^

@Quizling & rokrchik1211: It does play sounds when SW is not the active tab. It is disabled when you see them pop up to prevent annoyance over time.

@EightDown: It is indeed a feature that was only just added and an option to turn them off has just been confirmed to be added later.
An interesting idea on the privacy options for messages would be to have two different numbers on the email notification icon. One number on the top would be your inbox count. A second number on the bottom would be your message requests. People who want to always ignore the message requests could still do so, but having that secondary notification would be useful for people who want to occasionally screen through those requests.

Privacy options for messages. I'm not a fan of private messaging. And I actually am not liking the instant notifications since they keep getting in the way while I'm typing and it only just started. Maybe it's just my phone. 😒

Well everytime i click on something here the orange line on top blinks and it takes 3-5 seconds for the page to change...sometimes longer..
The setting to turn off the online status. 👏
@ pinkrainbowkisses:
I would utilize this feature if I am tired and/or don't want to be disturbed.
WHY else do you like it? :)

I am genuinely curious, I *see* many who employ this feature, while online.

Thanks to each and every one of the hard working people who are responsible for the continuing progress of SW. You don't get enough credit for the extremely impressive job you all are doing.
Thanks again.

Not slow at all here... I flicked from one page to the next and everything had just... changed!

The pop up notification I think.

The online status is cool too but the notification thing is pretty nifty!

It worked!!! I need new underwear now though because I turned my sound right up straining to hear anything... :(
rokrchik1211 · 26-30, F
Is there supposed to be a sound when you receive a notification? If so its not working
SeadragonPrincess · 26-30, F
Still missing the reply button to make it easier than looking for your @
Love all of this--feels like Christmas!

@wotevatogeva: Honestly I don't know, but an Andrew who specializes in social media does make me think about "our Andrew" indeed. xD But well, world wide there probably are more people who fit that description, so we'll never be sure unless Andrew answers that himself. ;)
Gentle153 · 36-40, MMod
I've heard that from two people now and in both cases it was caused by a rather big Windows update. That's probably going to affect more people over the next few hours/days, but it's only temporary. When the update is finished, the computer works as fast as ever and SW with it.
rokrchik1211 · 26-30, F
I went to a new tab and never heard a sound even though I had new notifications :( maybe it's because I am on a phone
SW-User
Any chance of feedback on the sound issue from the 'tech team' please! :D
ammoniascrubbertime · 46-50, F
Love the new options when will we have the mobile app!! Really want it fast!!
Jessa mines been running fine on my laptop and phone.. no problems here.
rokrchik1211 · 26-30, F
@quizling no I'm using safari on an iPhone and no sound at all

@Rokrchick - Ahh, okay, I am using Chrome on a PC and nothing...

@Gentle - Thank you, that makes sense then :D
berangere · 80-89, F
Could I make a suggestion.Could SW have an adult site as I have come across some objectionable "adult" posting. An "adult" site would keep the people who like "risque" posts happy and spare those who do not.Thank you.
Jessa29 · 36-40, FMod
You can change what you see in your settings. If you see anything that's not adult and think it should be please feel free to message me.
berangere · 80-89, F
@Jessa29: I think you have misunderstood me I do not want to come across "adult" posts and have said so in the settings,I have had many friends requests from people who like strong adult material and have blocked them, My request was for NON ADULT, I do not want to have to read some of that stuff. Thank you.
Gentle153 · 36-40, MMod
You're welcome :)

@Tminus6453 There was just an update put out but I haven't really noticed it being slow (besides when my laptop was doing updates)
