AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around managing email notifications and subscriptions in a forum setting. Users express concerns about their engagement levels, with one participant questioning their potential addiction to the platform after deleting a large number of emails. They rely on email alerts to track responses but seek ways to avoid automatic subscriptions to threads. Another user shares their experience of receiving excessive emails, leading to frustration and a decision to unsubscribe from certain threads. Participants highlight the complexity of current forum features and discuss options for adjusting notification settings to better manage their engagement without overwhelming email alerts.

I've just deleted about 300 :blushing:

Am I addicted to this place? I use the email sedning as a way of knowing when people have responded, it pops up on my screen.

I don't have any because I don't subscribe to threads.
 
Is there a way of just not subscribing to them? I kinda like them.

So that's why you didn't pick up the Ten Million prize money?? :cry:
 
I subscribe but don't get e-mail notification. You can change the options in the user CP > Edit options.
 
I used to get an email every day when I made every day my birthday. Then I got a warning to stop, and the emails never came anymore. I was heart broken.
 
Yeah, I got rid of that cause it was buggin the hell outta me.
 
I used to subscribe to the Food thread and How Does Your Garden Grow, but since I visit about every day and hit "New Posts" that is not necessary. No PF notifications in the Inbox.

Thank you. I was wondering how to opt-out of the perpetual subscribes.

Forums are a lot more complicated these days.

hmmm... I have a new topic idea...

When I first started at PF I was taking an extended vacation, so I dug in and carried about ten involved debates at a time. One DAY I received over 200 emails.
