    I don't use the Alerts link in the menu, top right as I use "Watched Threads" menu option instead.

    So the Alerts Speech Balloon steadily grows ... however, there are certain things that will reset it. Even momentarily hovering the mouse over it, or gliding the mouse over it without thinking, will pop up the list and clear the count .... some other types of reboot have cleared it too, not entire sure what does / does not though ...

    Anyways, happened to spot that it was showing a round number just now, so I took a "picture" of it :)

    Starts to become a bit of a habit trying NOT to accidentally trigger the pop-up list display !!

      Hi Kristen, did you get those 500 likes I gave you?

        I'm the opposite. The classic 'red button' presser. If I see something red that is meant to be clicked, I click it. Its impossible to resist:)

          Didn't we have that on here once-upon-an-upgrade?

          An ability to give away your "reputation score"? Can't remember now ... :scratch:

          But, no, I didn't get your 500 likes, and in any case what you promised me was 5,000 of your likes :)

          Sounds like an expensive addiction on Sky !!

            That sounds like a good idea! I wonder what I could get for 500 likes in the For Sale section (I ceased being concerned about my 'reputation' many, many years ago).
