Only by protesting in large numbers can we convince them to bring it back! Surely you mean "in large letters." I didn't even know there was a notification sound. Likely because I silence any and all noises that every device I own could possibly make without my permission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dman979 Posted June 22, 2018 Author Share Posted June 22, 2018 Honestly, I'm not sure if it's possible to bring back, since the moderators are not the tech gurus of the forum. That would be the great and all-powerful @ManeTI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s all make with the ominous chanting! and annoy @5thHorseman till he appreciates the dink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gargamel Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 It should be a toggle-able option, defaulting to off. Some people like to dink, some hate the dink. Don't hate the dink. #bringbackthedink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi guys, the notification chime was never disabled by us, not sure if it was a bug, anyway we have updated the forums software to the latest version, let me know if that fixed the problem.

Activity stream results may not be complete. Looks like (exactly 2 months later) this is starting to come back. The text is still at the top of the activity stream, but now there are posts as well. So whatever whomever was doing, they seem to have did it and it seems to have worked. So thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAL59 Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 In the Kerbal Edu subforum, there is a stickied post called forum rules. Its date is 1969 and it is an unavailable page. It was probably never noticed because nobody visits that subforum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimate Steve Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 YES! One of the first "dinks" I got was when I had just finished trombone practice and my speakers were still on full, so it was somewhat startling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
