We all have great inner power. The power is self-faith. There's really an attitude to winning. You have to see yourself winning before you win. And you have to be hungry. You have to want to conquer.
I spent the day today updating the way the site sends out email notifications. Before, if you were subscribed to a Forum or were involved in a conversation thread, the system would just shoot out emails whenever new posts/comments happened. That annoyed even me with too many emails.
Now you can specify how often you'd like to get these notification emails: either as they happen, hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly. You can update your preferences on the Communications page.
These will be triggered any time you get a new item on your Notifications page except for "likes." So any new forum posts you're subscribed to, replies to your comments, or messages from me or the moderators.
The system is programmed to only email you if you have new UNREAD notifications. So if you're on the site every day and you see them, and your frequency is set to weekly, you shouldn't get any emails.
Any questions? Post em below.

Wow, I was thinking about writing you about the number of emails I am getting. You must be on top of everything else, a mind reader.
Yeah, we're starting to annoy me because I was getting notifications for every forum post and every comment to every thread that I'm involved in, and it just had to stop. So, no one else has surprisingly complained about it, but it was annoying me. I figured I'd do something about it. Hopefully, this will prevent people from unsubscribing and just setting their notifications to whatever frequency they like, such as weekly or monthly.

I seem to get email notifications for my own forum posts too. Can I be notified only for other people's posts? One quality-of-life feature I would like is to see the first few lines of a new post shown in the email notification.
