    Default Please stop the email alerts!

    How can I set my account so I don't get zillions of emails about who is replying to threads? I've tried unsubscribing, but I get resubscribed, and the email alerts quickly follow, every time I post.

    Go to your user control panel on the right, under your screen name. In the menu on the left you'll find "edit options". There in the "Default Thread Subscription Mode", you have a choice of subscribing or unsubscribing to alerts.

    You should be ok now. Janivar and Jimmy have given you the right info, but I have already changed your settings.

    Default Emails and subscriptions

    On the issue of subscriptions, it appears I am subscribed to all threads I post to. This is totally noob, but how can I post with out auto subscribing?
