Can anyone tell me how to do that? I don't see the option when I subscribe :dunno:

I do see in the "User Control Panel" where it says..."Administrators can e-mail me information:". Is that it? I didn't think so.

Thanks :tup:

somewhere inthere under your control panel theres an option for auto reply to thread or something. set that to 'no' and you should be ok.

Hey Dukey :wave:

I found this in the location you pointed me to...

Notify me upon replies by default:

It is already turned off (set to "No") and I'm still getting the notifications :(

Fuck me :!: :!: :!:

I just found it here in this "Quote" "response" window....down there V V V :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao:

Wow, now we have to go back to all of our subscribed threads and fake post to see this window to change it?

I knew I had seen it earlier but couldn't remember where I had seen it :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: Now I know why....they're hiding it :)

:crazy: :pullhair: :crazy:

:roflmao:

Take care Duke :rockon:,

i don't know what to tell ya WHAB, i used a fake email addy to sign up here so i don't get any kind of notification. i'm sure theres a setting somewhere. there usually is and you can always blame the weed for not being able to find it. :stoner smilie:

No, Duke...I found it....it's right there V V V, in this quote/response window. Watch....act like you're going to respond then look down at the list of "Options" (Disable BBCode, Disable smilies...etc.) in that window....it is 5th in the list.

I will definitely blame the weed for someone (whoever) putting it there, though :p

Take care, Duke!,

I think I see what's happening now.

When you go to create a thread, or post in a thread, the "Notify me when a reply is posted" is defaulted to no check mark. But after you "Subscribe" to a thread it defaults to "Notify me when a reply is posted" checked even though you didn't select it....it puts the check in there without your input.

Is there a chance we can make it an action a member has to make instead of being automatic?

If not, that's cool too :rockon:

Take care all :wave:,
