I have never cleared my notifications. 

Should I be clearing them? 

 

What is so annoying? 

When you click on Notifications, having read and cleared them, there is a nice clean and tidy empty page, so, at a glance you can see that there  is nothing remaining to be read.

You obviously don't HAVE to clear them if you might want to read them again,  but I, and several others prefer to do it that way.

The AN forum USED to do that and other forums using the same software do behave in that way.

Then, apparently, there was a software "update" and that functionality got broken.

 

Also, unread notifications appear as bold, clicking on them usually clears the bold to normal - but that does not always work.

Thanks for the reply. 

 

Yes, the bold is removed once I look at it, I don't bother clearing them. 

 

Good luck with your request.
