Why Does My Attempts To Answer a Post Not Alert The Recipient?


OK, Not music or equip. related, but bothersome. Often I go to answer a post by typing the @ symbol, wherein, a list of people in the thread then show up. However, this is often incomplete and often does not show the intended recipient. I usually make sure the spelling is correct and whether the capital first letter is appropriate. Often it is a small letter which I then type in. I don't remember this problem many years ago as a frequent  poster. Anyone know? Thanks in advance..

Right up there on the right beside your post it  says "Get notified when someone responds."
The only way it works is if the recipient has checked the "Follow this Discussion" box. Took me a little bit to figure out.
