6. Joining Bigtent - Notifications

7. Notification Options in detail:  None, hidden – you get no emails and will not see any posts from this forum even on the web. DO NOT SELECT THIS OPTION. I’m not even sure why Bigtent makes it an option!  Web Only – you get no emails. Log onto Bigtent to see all posts from this forum. This is a good option if you don’t want additional emails and are dedicated to checking Bigtent often.  Summarize in a Blink – you get one summary emailed in your Blink whenever your Blink is scheduled to be sent. (more detail on how to set your Blink schedule later.)  Email Daily Message Digest – you get one email a day (or an email for every 25 messages) summarizing all topics and comments.  Email Every Topic (comments web only) – you get one email per topic. Log on to Bigtent to see comments on each topic.  Email Every Message and Comment – you get one email for each topic and each comment. This is a great option if you never want to go on Bigtent and just want to respond to topics and other comments directly from your email.
