AI Thread Summary
Users are experiencing random subscriptions to threads, with no clear pattern identified.

There is speculation that the issue may stem from settings in the Admin Control Panel (AdminCP) or could be a bug related to the vBulletin platform.

I'm still having this problem where I will randomly get subscribed to threads. I haven't figured out a pattern to it, except that I've been getting a lot of them in the past couple days. :frown:

The same thing's happening to me...
 
Have you checked to see if the option Do not subscribe in your User CP is selected?

Yes, it's selected. It looks to me like, I'm randomly being subscribed to certain threads I post in.
 
Maybe the option is set for certain forums to auto subscribe via AdminCP?

If it is, it wouldn't be on purpose.
 
It could also be a bug from vBulletin side.
 
I haven't gotten any email notifications in a week. I checked the user options about four days ago and found that something had turned off my notifications, but it is set now.
