There may be only one page of search-results listings, but it is some information. Also, mouse-hovering over the tag should tell how many posts it is indexed to.

as some of you know the site had a problem with users not getting notices to new posts….well this is a problem that goes like this

in your http://help.com/account/my-tags you can type in key words of subjects that you want to notified of, when a post is put up it is tagged by the website with some key words that are in the post.

You then get notices to the posts that the tags match with the tags you put on that page and the ones for the post.

At the moment this system does not seem to work…..

The website does not seem to bee tagging posts… so you may not be getting noticies to new posts.

The idea is that you have tags that describe what you know, and you get notified if a post is tagged with any of those words. However, the notifications for tags are not working for the past week.

The rest of the way the site works is that people post questions, and then other people post replies that try to be helpful (or are rude, then get reported and removed). You get more answers to your questions if you help other people because they see a link to your question under each of your replies on other posts (I don’t have one right now, but look at other posts to see them).
