Hearts ?    If that's the subject - yes they are nice; but half the time I never go back to check and notification (I guess) shows up only if I'm still on this board.  Glad they make posters happy tho.

It’s nice to know someone appreciated what you wrote. I try to reciprocate to all who respond to me. I also like to heart a good answer or a great new thread. Thanks to all who take the time to do so.  ❤️

So, I'm not going to lie, I love getting notifications! I love signing in and seeing how many notifications I have (how needy am I)! It's like validation, someone read what I had to say, I don't care if you agree with me or not, if it's a heart or a mention, it doesn't matter to me. Does anyone else feel this way, or am I the biggest loser?

It was nice of you to share this. Now that I know you enjoy the notifications I  will try to remember to always heart you. It is always nice when we can make someone feel good.

@RetRN that’s very sweet of you, thank you.

@Jordan2   I try to check the ones that say “mentioned” figuring they may require a response.

I also like the notification feature.  It gives me the chance to respond to someone, if it's a "mention".

Iit's also nice to know if someone has read your response, when s(he) has asked for advice, and you've posted a reply.

It acts as a reminder for me, too, about which threads I've posted on and makes the boards more of a dialogue.  That's why I'm here, after all.  I'm not just "talking to myself".

I love notifications.❤️

They are fun.🙂

I don't get on the forums every day and sometimes not for several days.  When I do, sometimes I forget to notice notifications.  When I do, it's like receiving a present, seeing several notifications, and I can reminisce about the conversation that I contributed to.

@Jordan2   The notifications are useful so that you can go back to check on a topic you started or responded to.  Also, it is nice to be "hearted" and if mentioned to be able to respond if it is appropriate.

It is indeed nice to know that someone read your post and liked it or agreed with you.  I do read my notifications but can't say that I look forward to them.
