Watched threads not working randomly

Ok first off if this is the wrong area someone move please.

My watched threads keep coming UNWATCHED even ones I started.

It used to work
If you start a thread or reply to one, the thread was automatically WATCHED and you would get a notification if there is a new post to that thread.
You would stop getting notification if you received one then never visited the thread. BUT IT WAS STILL a Watched Thread

Well Nowadays that works SOMETIMES and other times it doesnt.
The thread I created a week ago or so
http://vapingunderground.com/threads/help-flavor-wont-go-away.343920/#post-1843893
was watched by me automatically and I was receiving notification about it
UNTIL TODAY
I noticed there was a reply when I clicked NEW POSTS and when I went there it was not a watched thread and I never had a notification about the thread

Sometimes if I reply to a thread it is WATCHED and I receive notifications, sometimes it doesn't automatically watch it and I receive no notifications.

SO my info
windows 7
chrome
green eys
slightly over weight
notifications NOT SENT TO EMAIL
.loves long walks on the beach at sunset

Anyone else having issues????

yup..it's like if you don't post in a thread for a bit and it thinks you don't care anymore..pretty random. Hope it gets figured out.

I know I have issues with a watched thread if I haven't visited it for a while the notifications will stop. But, never had the box come unchecked.

well this thread is not watched for me
even though i started it
\it used to automatically watch a thread when you start it
I didnt know there was a response if I didnt see it under New Posts

so something has changed or something is broke
it started happening during the email server migration

If you go to your account preferences... are these two boxes checked?

Yeah that happens to me also. Seems like if I miss a day or two of a watched thread then I don't get any notifications that someone replied. Not the end of the world. Last one to post wins thread. When that happens I always tease them saying Marcus did it so I cant win lol.
