Do other people have problems with the tracking function? For a couple of LJs from authors whose fic I read, but am not interested in their other entries, and who also tag their fiction, I chose in the tracking options to get a notification when an entry with certain tags is posted to their LJ. Which seemed like a very convenient alternative to friending when my interest in the LJ is limited to the fiction. And for some LJs that seems to work like I intended, but at least with one author I just don't get a notification, even though the entry that has been added has the relevant tags. I don't get it. Can LJ owners choose not to be trackable or something? or other ideas why it might not work?
