I am the owner of a forum and am suddenly being emailed notifications of posts on watched topics that I am not watching! I think I am recieving them everytime a post is made and its drving me insane! Please help!

Edited title to help describe better for techs and others who might want to add to the list of who is being effected with this problem. Wink Skittles

Go to your profile -> Preferences -> Always notify me of replies Also Notify me by email if someone reports a post
You may be getting this because in the topics or posts this is selected:so go through all you posts and unselecet them.

I had already done what you suggested above, but it hasnt worked. The difference as well is that the emails are going to a different email address to the one on my profile.

me too, I havnt posted in any of the topics, nor have I even looked at them, it must be a bug in the system, as why are we all suddenly getting these email notifications.

Uber, just a hint....if several people come in with the same problem at the same time, it usually means it is a glitch or technical difficulty.

Moving to Techs

Please be patient while the Techs take a look into this. It might take awhile, depending on the status of the other problems they are working on as well. We're sorry you are going thru these problems.

The tech most generally will not reply once this is moved in their section unless they have a question or until it is fixed. Wink
