Hello everyone,

Kati tells me she hasn't been receiving any email notifications for the past few days. Is that the same with you?

Many thanks,
Torsten

Hello Torsten,

I really don't understand what you expected from your letter. This would be a checking of my truthfulness ? You can't imagine that I wrote letters to you that I haven't been receiving any email notifications.( you corrected my words no letters,but forum posts and not forum postsbut email notification etc.) but you didn't want to answer my real question WHY my EMAIL NOTIFICARIONS had been suspended.

I wrote to you that it is a very strange coincidence with Dozy 's letter when we disputed something with each other. He closed the dispute with this sentence:
(Thread: it is possible for the indefinite article (a,an) to precede an ordinal number.
12.jan.#5)
[
Quote:
b]"I think it is better we do not interact any more on this forum, and I would stop DISPARAGING me in your replies to other people. IF THIS DISPUTE GOES ANY FURTHER THEN I WILL REFER IT TO THE MODERATORS FOR MEDIATION "[/b]


And after this on the 14th January my emails had been stopped. What a coincidence! Why don't you ask the others if they dare dispute another student will be they threatened.

Besides after this letter Beeezeee wrote to me about our dispute.
Thread: in or on the second place?
Quote:
"you seem to have found a general guide, which is fantastic as it can help clarify what is possible with ordinal numbers as adverbs. Well done."


It is not so simple than you had summerized.

Regards:
Kati Svaby

Even a request please ask Dozy where I used disparaging words with Him?

Hello Kati,

You don't mention the fact that in the thread you quote from, Dozy actually apologised if his language seemed intemperate in the heat of the moment, and in his upset state.
I thought that you had agreed to put the disagreement with Dozy behind you so I'm disappointed that you have decided to raise it again in this entirely different thread. Whether or not it is your intention, by doing so you are acting exactly as Dozy accused you of acting -- you are making disparaging remarks about him, and continuing the dispute a week after we thought it was settled. Please can I ask you to do us all a favour and drop this matter. It will cause further upset -- to you, to Dozy and to the friendly nature of the forum -- and it has NOTHING to do with your current question about receiving topic notification replies.

With regard to Torsten's question, he is not disputing what you say. Your e-mail notifications have not been deliberately suspended. If they are not working for you and you are sure that you have set them up correctly, then we will look into them. The first step in doing so is to find out if this is an isolated case which only involves you or if it is more widespread. That was the purpose of Torsten's question.

I believe that I have read messages from other members who have the same complaint about topic notifications not being received.

Hi Bev, yes since I don't get any email notifications on posts by default, I have no way of testing whether the feature works or not. Before I get Remsys involved, I'd like to hear from other forum members if they are experiencing the same problem or does it just concern Katja.

So please let me know if you have been receiving the notifications.

Many thanks,
Torsten

Hello Bez,
I put numbers where I don't agree with you:
1.-2.I don't remember that he apologized me for using intemporate language with me.
3.I didn' t write to Dozy lately any letter because I didn't put disagreement with him. This was not the first occasion that he used this tone with me.
4. Different thread - i had to answer on this thread because Torsten wrote me on this thread.
5. A week after - Torsten is my witness that I wrote 2 days later when i didn't recive any more notifications.

Bez, I never was treacheous but somebody reads your letter he/she could consider me in this way. I quoted from your letter the essence. Till I live I never forget Dozy's threat.
I have no secret, For me it was a very rude threat. I don't explain to myself how somebody can use this kind of means.
But about you a Hungarian folk- tale struck me: a king tells he wants to marry her daughter to whom he can give me something and in the same time he doesn't give anything. Of course a poor young man appeared and hand to him a tray on it with a sieve. The king lifted the sieve and a beautiful dove flew away. So he gave and didn't gave. It is similar to our story, you tell me something kind and immediately you took it away.

Regards:
Kati

I try to copy what I try to show only for me this is the essence was shocking or not.

I am sorry. I wrote to Amy and you answered.

I think might be better if we stick to the issue in hand which is the email notifications.

Then remind yourself by reading his message here

You are raising the issue again now.
Quote:

That is because you kept complaining about him when all he was trying to do was help.
Quote:
4. Different thread - i had to answer on this thread because Torsten wrote me on this thread.

You did not have to mention Dozy on this thread. It has nothing to do with the matter you were trying to resolve with Torsten.
Quote:
5. A week after - Torsten is my witness that I wrote 2 days later when i didn't recive any more notifications.

You misunderstand what I was talking about. I meant that a week after the matter with Dozy ended, you raised it again.
PLEASE LET THE MATTER REST.

As always, I try to be fair. I think you are now being unfair.

Hello Bez,

Don't tell me that I am unfair! What I wrote it is on the Forum. I didn't add a new word to it.
Dozy called my letters meaningless, and not in a kind tone. I tried to write in other way but he told me again I can't understand you. At least several times I wrote to him: excuse me and be PEACE between us. He never answered one of my appologizing letter. I knew that to apologize souldn't have been my obligation but I did for the peace.If now the time wouldn't be a.m. 1 o' clock( after midnight) I would collect for you these letters. But I will do it in a new thread.
What you enumerated unfortunately I couldn't agree with them.
To tell the justice is a crime ?
No, what is true , it is true.
Regards:
Kati

I am not prepared to argue about this all over the forum, Kati.
I have told you what I think and answered all the points you disagreed with.

I have no wish to upset you or add to the stress which you are currently feeling, but must ask you to do your part:

I do NOT want you to start yet another thread about the issue which should have been laid to rest a week ago. I've read the messages to which you refer and still think they are all down to a misunderstanding. I don't need to re-read them and I don't think you should reproduce them.

I will not respond to these points again.
