Hello everyone! As our regular viewers will have noticed, Pokécharms was unaccessible for a while yesterday. This was due to the hard drive in our server failing suddenly, which forced us to make a sudden and unannounced server move to our backup server.
Thankfully, we managed to get nearly all of the data out intact. Unfortunately, we did lose the thread watch data, which kept track of whether you want to get alerted when people reply to a thread. All is not lost, however – you can re-watch any threads you're interested in very easily to continue getting alerts. Just follow these simple instructions:
That's it – just repeat the process for any other threads you wish to watch
This doesn't affect watching entire forums, nor does it affect the alerts you'll get from conversations, comments on your works or profile posts, and so on – all that is safe!
From all of us here at Pokécharms, we apologise for the unexpected downtime. As we're now on a brand new server, please let us know if you find any issues with the site.

- Go to the Forums tab, then open the forum the thread is in, such as Pokémon Role Play or Small Talk.
- Open the thread you want to watch.
- Just above the first post, at the right, there is a button labelled "Watch Thread." Click or tap that, then choose from the options that appear.
