That’s what that little megaphone symbol at the very most NE corner of your screen is for. Notifying you of pings.
I’ve never used it. Not even sure how it works. Over the years I somehow got on so many ping lists that I don’t exactly want to be on, but don’t exactly want to be off, that if I turned it on whatever it does would be doing it to me every 5 minutes.
Are you on the "Sheep Circle" ping list too?
