Sorry Mike, don't want to argue so early in the morning, but that's not how my ALERTS tab works. If someone posts after I do, I get an alert even if they don't quote me or like my post. It says "XXXXX replied to the thread XYZ. There may be more posts after this."
I don't know how to screen shot and post so I took a pic with my phone. Here is what I see when I click on ALERTS.
