Is there any way to stop all the thread update emails?Why do you do this to me, TSR?
When I see that there has been a swift increase to my inbox count since I last checked it, I can't contain myself with excitement at the thought of reading something interesting.
But lo and behold I click "inbox" and there they are, 13 pointless thread update emails. I cannot explain the rage and disappointment I feel once I realise I've been spammed again.
13 emails at once? Is this really necessary? -

Watched threads?
Click them all so they go? -

Is that what you mean by thread updates? Threads you're watching which you get an e-mail about when there's a new post?
Some haven't even had any new posts.
It seems like it's a weekly thing that's done regardless.
For example I'm watching the Male Fashion Thread but I've never once had an update about that and I never go in it. -

Re: Is there any way to stop all the thread update emails?The only thing I can think of is that maybe you're automatically watching threads. Under "settings" there's a default thread watching mode, maybe check and see what that's set to. Or check your watched threads under community --> watched threads as that could be set to weekly.(Original post by Wilfred Little)

Re: Is there any way to stop all the thread update emails?Mods, it's got to stop.
29 thread update emails. Some were duplicates. I cannot notice a pattern, some threads were ones I posted last in, some weren't. Some were threads with new posts in, some weren't.

Re: Is there any way to stop all the thread update emails?Are you certain that you have no watched threads? You still have automatic thread watching with email updates enabled - as above, you need to change this and then change your settings for any existing watched threads.(Original post by Wilfred Little)

Re: Is there any way to stop all the thread update emails?I have watched threads but 1) I like that feature because if there's a new post I can go to the thread and 2) some of the updates are from threads not on my watched threads list.(Original post by Illusionary)

Re: Is there any way to stop all the thread update emails?You may want to change your thread watching mode if you don't want to receive emails - one of the options will still place a notification of new posts in your 'watched threads' widget but no send emails.(Original post by Wilfred Little)

I can't see your watched threads list, but make sure that you check all pages of your list to ensure that you don't have any set to send emails. -
