Reality TV World Message Board Forums
PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"New message notification"
I must have accidentally checked the box that says "check here if you want to be notified of new messages in this thread" when making a post on Spoilers, as I am getting email messages now every time someone posts to the thread.

Is there a way to deactivate this? I tried editing on my posts to uncheck the box, but the box shows up unchecked when I open the post, so I've no idea how to turn it off.

Thanks,
Brownroach

Thanks so much for your assistance.


It would seem so. Well hopefully it will be a dead thread soon.

Sorry, roach-

There is, unfortunately, no way to turn off the new message notification. The good news is that most threads die after a week or two, so the e-mail deluge should stop on it's own soon enough.

As an aside, one of the first ever "monster threads" here on this board went to over 1000 posts in a single thread. One of the board members had checked the new message notification box!

The barrage of e-mails not only filled up that member's inbox, but nearly brought our e-mail server to its knees (of course that was years ago, before we had the great high-speed servers that we have now!)

I guess the moral of the message is... it could be a lot worse

Thanks, eee -- yes it could be worse -- I'm glad I didn't have this accident in a thread on the OT board.
