Cheers for the 'help' but all that did was take me to a page of a bunch of other people enduring/moaning about the same problem, can someone from the mod team reply please or even @Shaun

It's hidden in your account settings, access via your Avatar which is next to the envelope icon at the top of the screen...... I think

In the preferences section of your account

Scroll down and you should see a box for blocking them.

Nay that disnae work either, nor does clicking on the stop notifications icon on the box they're in.
 
I've unchecked the box that says allow them, but I still get them and also get requests to allow them. Seems contradictory.
 
I suspect that the mod team won't know.
This is in the realms of the tech guys and there will be something deep in the coding that will always work against us. Probably some data collection thingy.

I dunno but I doubt it, Cyclechat has always been quite a decent site for the years I've been a member, the mod team have far more access to the goings on than we have.I'm just miffed that one click now brings up these annoying little boxes in the bottom right corner of the page, if I want to see 'Alerts' I'll click on the Alerts little bell on the top.
