In the end all those discussions ended with enough support by members to keep the system how it is now.

So i am really curious why you try to force this discussion again. I find it very hard to look at this as a positive attempt to make this place batter.

Sure, I'll tell you.

I never noticed it taking place. I type fast, reply to one question and go to the next, and it looked curious a few times why I didn't get any feedback on an issue. It's only recently I noticed that I don't see the replies, or get the notifications, and miss a whole lot of issues and feedback, fixes, debugs, etc.

If what you say is true, and the members who give support to others have found it a great idea to eliminate those features, then I'd be astonished. When something doesn't make sense, it usually doesn't make sense.

I suspect members agree that bumps are annoying. That is totally different, since I definitly agree thet they are annoying. And the rule posted against bumping should be there as it is.

But that is a different issue than eliminating updates and notifications, since that is not only annoying, but misleading. The ones who usually get caught in it are the ones who try to help and get engaged in discussions to help others. While usually the ones who violate the rule don't care. I don't see why I should be denied those basic standard vB features, just because of the few who don't respect the rules.
