Stop pestering your users

Ok, it's been mentioned before - but hopefully, the more people that complain, the better chance will be that it gets fixed.

STOP SENDING EMAILS TO USERS WHO DON'T POST EVERY 5 SECONDS.

Nobody is under any obligation to post regularly, and the sending of emails to users who do not, is childish. The fact that I can't turn off these notices really pisses me off. It verges on being SPAM.

I'm not really interested in any advice like "just post regularly". Any of you are free to spend your lives here. I choose not to. It doesn't me that I (or anyone else, for that matter) should be pestered incessantly.

My Mood:
This should be fixed. For Justice. Great Justice.

I thought something was done about a long time ago anyway. I don't get them anymore. :(

You can quite easily remove such emails from being sent to you, from within your UserCP. No need to get so riled by it.

I would love to help you with this issue, but I am unfamiliar with what modification to the vBulletin software is causing you to receive these emails continuously.
I, too, got those emails back in the day =/

Why would you even enable such emails to be sent? I mean, really... Begging users to post? The shame alone of such a thing ought to prompt this to be changed as a default setting. (which it obviously is)

I've changed your user preferences. You shouldn't get these emails anymore.





For everyone else, as I mentioned before, change the settings within your CP.

UserCP > Edit Options > Receive Email from Administrators.

Merely un-tick the box.

If you're going to make statements like that, proofread before you make yourself look dumb, in addition to an ass... (dumb+ass =?)

You're sick of these threads, and I'm sick of the emails. So I guess between the both of us, we cancel out. Now go away.
