notifications should be deleted every month.

I have heard not deleting them makes scratch severs slow down. You agree they should delete after a month?

Re: notifications should be deleted every month.

No, I don't support because I'm keeping some of my notifications as kind of a "record" for future use, and this feature would delete all of them. Also, what if you get a notification right before the monthly cleaning and it gets deleted before you can see it? Both of these are reasons why I don't support.

1.  I see what you mean, but I suggest writing it down or something; it slows down the server when you keep messages.
2.  I think he means once the messages themselves are a month old.

Re: notifications should be deleted every month.

we have concluded in the past that notifications should never remove themself because we never know what people are using them for

I think after messages are a month old they should be deleted, with the option to archive them.

Ahh, great idea!  Some way to save notifications without slowing down the server.
