Those flashing kudos and pm notifications down the bottom

of the screen are driving me insane.

Scared the living daylights out of me this morning

yes, me too, is it a new thing? I thought I had a virus.

It is bad enough to have a notifications up there, I forget what it is and open it, thinking it's a message.

They were popping up with my 'logo' when a post was answered at the bottom right of my screen.

katy, they appear as pop-ups in the bottom right hand corner when someone kudos one of your posts.

I'll kudo yours and you might see it.

Kopenhagen, I can see the notification in the top right hand corner of the main screen, but nothing here.

Could it depend on the browser one uses?

I don't see anything flashing in the lower right hand corner.....don't even have a Kudo notification there, and never have.

I'm using Firefox.

Kudo notifications are up top, near your ebay id.

Pop up notifications are at the bottom right, when someone gives you a kudo

As I posted earlier I don't have a Kudos Notification in the lower right hand corner...flashing or otherwise.

I'm getting the pop up notification.

Re: Flashing Notifications

chuk_77 — Mon, 06 Oct 2014 05:45:48 GMT

huh? I dont get it? What is happening where?

Would ad block make a difference?

Re: Flashing Notifications

freddie*rooster — Mon, 06 Oct 2014 05:52:58 GMT

I'm pretty sure I have add block, it's a little black box down on the bottom right side of the screen, it flashes when you receive a kudo.

I will kudo you and see if you get it.

cherry*135 — Mon, 06 Oct 2014 06:07:12 GMT

I have adblock but still get the - xxx has given you a kudo pop up in the lower right of the screen.

I got a lot of them yesterday, not so many today, but still received kudos.

edit: Cancelled my theory, as I just got a kudo pop up for a post, but not for a post in this thread.

What about popup blockers? I think I've got them ...

Still no flashing notices here ...

They don't seem to happen if you're on the same thread.

They jump out and scare you when you're looking elsewhere.

I was reading a PM this morning and they just

flashed and scared me.

And.....they're black!!!

Them flashers are black
They're on the attack
Don't you look, they will scare
They are mean, they don't care.
