Stop Post Subscriptions | Threads

In summary, to prevent receiving email notifications for new posts in a thread, go to User CP > Edit Options > Default Thread Subscription Mode and change it to "Do not subscribe." Alternatively, you can still subscribe but turn off the email notification in the edit options page. This way, you can still keep track of interesting threads without being constantly notified via email.

Is there any way to make the default when posting in a thread not to subscribe? My email inbox gets clogged with all these new post notifications because I always forget to uncheck the box for subscribing. I check back here every day, I don't need the thread subscriptions to find out whether there's new posts or not.

Thanks.

Try this:

User CP > Edit Options > Default Thread Subscription Mode (In Messaging & Notification).

Change mode to "Do not subscribe"

Or you can still subscribe but turn off the e-mail notification. Also in the edit options page.

I use this. It's much less annoying. This way, you can still keep track of interesting threads, but PF won't bug you with emails.
