Before about three days ago I had never got one from this site before, and now I seemingly get an email every damn time someone makes a thread or replies to one.

I think I just got about 7 in around 5 minutes about that harper does not represent canada thread was made. Do I just have to change my email so they all get sent to a fake one or is there something im missing that will actually stop it? - Fri, 26 Sep 2008 9:56am

Surely someone here knows how to disable this horseshit.

Well, going to see if changing my email in the 'Your Account' section works, but its going to display my email wrong. - Fri, 26 Sep 2008 5:16pm

Well, seemingly working. If you're having the same problem I would suggest just doing what I did and adding an extra @ or something. - Fri, 26 Sep 2008 5:17pm

Hey Guys,
There's a notify me of replies checkbox, when you post a message. For a couple days there it was set to on by default, but I've turned it off by default now. Sorry about that. - Fri, 26 Sep 2008 5:45pm Edited: Fri, 26 Sep 2008 5:47pm

Any thread you posted to, with notify me of replies checked will still by notifying you. At the top of those threads, there is a link that says: "stop notifying me of activity in this thread." click that. I'll add that info in the mail-out. - Fri, 26 Sep 2008 6:15pm

Im getting notified of threads being started or replied to, and say "Notify me by email of activity in this thread"

No option for stopping. - Fri, 26 Sep 2008 6:30pm

Yes, I can click notify, and then click stop.

But how does that stop it from emailing me whenever a new topic starts? Fuck it, im just changing my email again. - Fri, 26 Sep 2008 6:34pm

Are you getting emails about new topics? There's a similar toggle for that, when you viewing the list of topics in a forum. Is that turned on for you? It shouldn't automatically do that. Is anyone else having a problem like this? - Fri, 26 Sep 2008 6:57pm Edited: Fri, 26 Sep 2008 6:57pm

Doomhammer, I used my admin powers to check on your account. And it was set to email you when new topics were posted in general chitchat. So I disabled that for you.

Anybody else have problems with getting a new post notifications when you didn't ask for them? - Fri, 26 Sep 2008 9:42pm

I did, but the "stop notifying" thing worked for me. - Sat, 27 Sep 2008 8:16am

Hey Guys,
OK I set it up so that you now get a link in the notification email to automatically disable the notifications. Just click that anytime you get a notification you don't want.

Let me know if you have any problems. Thanks again for your patience. - Mon, 29 Sep 2008 5:34pm

Yeah, it's sneaky like that, but the link does contain the info to tell it what account and thus what email, to stop emailing. - Tue, 30 Sep 2008 1:43pm
