Rotate your phone to landscape.  Next to title is the green gear click it.

Ahhh....so it's not push notifications that will actually alert my phone? Because I don't want that, just want to see when I go to the site that I have a notification where the bell icon is. If that is what will happen, then thank you I'll try that!

Actually I'm not 100% sure because I've never enabled it

Try kryptos suggestion first

You are welcome. Following that way instead of actually just replying with the follow also allows you to uncheck the "let others see I follow " which will let you lurk. 

I originally used this for a while before I "officially" joined the boards.

Actually, on my android (Galaxy Note) that works for main forums, but I don't see that for threads like these that are created. hmmm....

Although back then it was a different set up and you did it a different way. This was changed during some of their "upgrades "

I still don't see it, I think my ad blocker screws around with a lot of settings on this site

I meant to say this to you but quoted the wrong thread a few minutes ago.

Well, I think we could all agree thar the search function blows and is very difficult to maneuver depending what you are searching for.

One (of many) suggestions I would have would be spacing of some of the buttons.  Here you see the "x" almost over the notifications and real close to sign out .  

I have fat fingers and more than once I either close the box or sign out trying to go to notifications..

They've recently blocked Google from being able to crawl the site.

Pretty much impossible to search for anything now.

I'm curious to know how much eBay has invested with this site. Seems like they have the same policies implemented

I think it's because they are changing hosts and have Google analytics and revenue turned off, or in limbo or ...... something. 

It's pretty dumb to have yourself taken off of Google crawlers.

And as you said, this makes it near impossible to search for forum content

Shoot, they are so overwhelmed they probably don't want anyone new to find them!😂

How about some stars or something where our Avatar is if they are a good, reputable seller on these boards? Maybe even for a buyer? Might be a lot for someone to manage though mod-wise.

I have no idea, but the best theory I can come up with is that someone is super paranoid and put overkill access restrictions.

That or someone seriously has no idea what they are doing and should step away from the keyboard
