I promise as a boy scout! This post is really light, even almost without value nor quality! I just wanted to say that I finished my homework! At least twice I have talked about this homework where I feel I am indebted to the number of notifications since I was inactive for several months, and tried to make it reach point 0, where on the notification page it says “You have no unread notifications”. Indeed, usually as soon as that is achieved a few moments later there will be a new notification but it is sure merely about new posts or comments. The funny thing is, I read two posts from Grace and Rachael about the unique number of notifications that reached thousands. Unique indeed, but I think, that is the uniqueness that I must avoid.
So, those of you who have been dragged into the past, I mean your old post or mine, I’m sorry and thankful that you can understand it. Really, giving and receiving comments is important to me (doesn’t mean you have to visit or read my posts), but reading and replying to comments is equally important because being here for me is not about posting as much as possible but about interacting, sharing, understanding differences, respect and appreciate each other, improve the ability to write, ask and answer well, and especially learn something to enrich insight. Well, of course, that’s just my point of view.

Do you think it is too complicated and wasting time just for notifications?

When Virily informs us: “You have no unread notifications” one feels great
Yes! Even though it usually only lasts for a few seconds!
I do not have as many notifications as the other members, but I still run out of time to review them regularly. I’m a little behind.
I am happy if that happens, meaning we always check and move notifications that are no longer needed. I always mark read notifications every time I finish commenting, as long as I’m active here.
I delete the read messages immediately otherwise I would be “lost” in the messages
That’s exactly what I always do, dear Vida, not delete but mark as read.
More the merrier. More notifications means I will earn more, interact more and be alive here on this lovely site.
Long live notifications (lol)
I think the decoration is too expensive. For this one, I chose loneliness.
Long live Loneliness!?
Can you live here if your notification folder remains empty for days? (lol)
Apparently you have never had a notification 0… O, dear friend, that’s a relief, even if only for a second, because once you reload, the new notifications have been lined up neatly on the original place.
I have never deleted any notificiations that I have attended to and so they stay there.
I will not be happy if I do not get notifications and that is final (lol)
The notifications that I look forward to are comments on my posts.
That’s your choice, no problem, Grace. I just often feel reminded by the text at the top left under the menu on the notification page “Notification mark as read”.
I have seen that but for whatever reason I have not clicked on it till now.
Have you just returned from abroad? Looks like you have skipped a few days… lol
There must be some notifications mentioning my name for your post.
I always comment back to any responses I get. That is the best part for me for being here, honestly.
After you said this I checked and could not find any of your responsesn right up to 30 pages of my notifications and then I gave up (lol)
Not the slightest I doubt that.
Maybe you are not careful when looking for it, look at the notification page around the 20s of the 19th century.
Very funny. I live for the present and quite pleased about it (lol)
Don’t worry, we live in the same era…

Well, congratulations I have 900 notifications and never see the end of them…because I don’t get a lot of time to spend…Nice photo of the bike.
Thank you, my friend.
Maybe you should start from the very first page, Pamela.
I went, as you know, to Maine with my wife for 3 days. When she asked me to disconnect at first I was a little disturbed. It seemed unfair. But it was nice to disconnect. Then I returned and had a lot of notifications to go through. It took a whole day to get them gone.
welcome to the clean plate club. Now you can have dessert!
Yes, Doc. Every now and then we have to disconnect, it’s important and necessary!
With clean plates, we are ready to welcome other menus!
What we are open to, always grows us as people!
Exactly, Doc, and that depends on our willingness.
The fact that someone liked your stuff enough to comment, that is a reality.
The notifications are but by-products of the creation of comment.
I am grateful for this fact although I am also quite aware that there are some users who do not like the main theme of my writings and of course avoid reading them. Well, that also happens to anyone here.
There are a few writers here that struggle to find an audience. There are others here that need to be more compassionate.
I find those who yell the loudest, tend to be the ones that need the most help.
The two types of writers you mentioned need to be introspective so that they don’t only put their own interests first. Like a team, all members must prioritize victory or team success over personal success, but if a member always just wants to walk alone, the other will eventually let it go and will tend to do the same. Finally, the screams of people who always walk alone tend not to be heard.
It is not generalizing but just an introspective reflection.
i suspect they would argue that they are perfectly fine. They don’t need help and they are perfect just the way they are.
They have been on many sites. They know best. At least they have told me that.
Well, even Iron Man doesn’t do everything by himself.
The motorcycle looks really cool!!
It’s great that you have completed your homework. I always try to catch up with the notifications, though I don’t really have a lot, I don’t spend enough time at Virily. I wish to, but I have other stuff to focus on. Besides the notifications here, I am always working on my Inbox Zero homework too. 😀
I would like to say your appreciation to the owner of the motor, dear friend.
Yes, as I said, 0 is important for me to be free to visit other users’ posts here. I am glad that you always try to catch notifications too. Beyond that, first thing first is an important principle.
old is gold , very cool motor cycle
That’s true. The old motorbike no longer functions as a vehicle but is still valuable as a collection item and cool as selfie background.

Great job Sir
Thanks a lot for the support, my friend.
Great job done, dear Albert….. where did you paint this oldtaimer
If you remember I posted a picture of a jeep, at least the grille and bumper part, the motorbike was next to it. It’s in a restaurant in the city where my niece lives. I visited that city because she asked my wife and me to help her in a legal case.
Of course, I remember that post … an interesting example of a motorcycle
Yes, you are right, my friend. I imagine how cool it would be to ride that old motorcycle if it could be fixed.
I’m sure it can be repaired by yourself if you get any more …. much can be done …. and what brand is it?
Ah, I really don’t understand how to fix a motorcycle, dear friend, and unfortunately, I also don’t know the brand of the motorbike because there is no emblem there.
There is so much to do today, dea friend … I asked more about the brand out of curiosity
I know that because you are an old motor fan as you have posted before.
That is true, dear friend …. only now I’ve lost quite a bit … sometimes I have every motorcycle in my little finger
Is that because of the age factor?
Since I no longer have a motorcycle, interest has dropped a little, and the years have gone their way
I understand, it is usually what we have and likes is often a trigger to deepen our liking and attention to similar things.
I am always playing the catch up game with notifications.
Cool motorcycle by the way. 🙂
That old motorbike is next to the jeep that its picture I’ve posted before. It’s in a restaurant in the city where my niece lives.
Maybe I’m not a risk-taker in this sort of thing, as I’m afraid of being in debt, whether it’s to a bank or someone.
Notifications are important. sometimes it takes a lot of time to check them all but in this way, we know who loves reading our posts, who loves communication, and so on.
You are right, and that is important to me, especially because we are in cyberspace where we cannot ask directly and then wait for an answer. Here we know who is willing and able to communicate and who is not so we can determine priorities, who (‘s post) needs to be visited and invited to communicate first.
Congratulations! I still work on my homework!
Thank you, Ileana! Persevere, I will send energy from afar.
Thank you in advance for your help. You better send me the homework solution!?
Solution? First, open the pages one by one, give check all notifications that only mention about virils and upvote (or downvote if any?) then click “mark read” and apply! If you are able to, keep continue to the initial page, it will definitely greatly reduce the number of notifications. Next, select the notification you want to reply to first, alternating with the new notification.
In the meantime, that is what I can recommend, but maybe you have done it too.
My notifications are always zero.I was referring to other homework!??
I’m sorry I made you waste your time writing! I was referring to a comment you made in another post. Sorry again!
Oh, don’t forget to always discard “virils” and “upvote” notifications as often as possible, at least every 5 times you give a comment or reply.
No need to be sorry, because I also know that you and I are always forgiven by…
Yeah! God always forgives us but I know that some people do not do this.
I think so, but not with you and me.
