How do I cancel subscriptions?
Each week I receive about 20 emails about threads I have posted even if I haven't posted for ages. I don't want these but when I click on the
bottom of each email Unsuscribe I get taken to a Error Message. Can anyone advise me please> |

At the top, under the MobileRead logo, select => User CP then on the left side (labeled "Your Control Panel"), under the heading "Subscribed Threads," select "List Subscriptions."
BTW, how is it that you have been a member for only seven months yet you have 10 million Karmas? Last edited by Skydog; 03-22-2013 at 01:45 AM. |

Because the Karma system is totally worthless, due to a small number of users who have abused it. Basically what people have done is to form Karma "rings", where 3 or 4 people give each other Karma repeatedly, this boosting it to ludicrous levels. Look at the Karma of those who post regularly in the Lounge: it's easy to spot the abusers.

Thanks Skydog. When I go to Subscibed Threads it says This folder is currently empty. Weird. I haven't manually subscribed to any threads yet I get all
the replies by email even when I haven't posted in them for ages. I have queried this with the moderators so hope I get a reply. BTW Skydog (and I'm replying to you not to HarryT whose post I find completely offensive) the karma I have gained is from winning a couple of playful competitions in The Lounge where the person who set the comps generously awarded me 5 million points. I was amazed and thought it very nice of him. I don't have a 'ring' , I don't even have any 'friends' or private message with anyone. I've yet to find out where the latest 5 million came from but I suspect it was that person in The Lounge where I won the comp again. |

In order to stop email notification about a thread that you have posted in previously:
Under User CP, scroll down to Settings & Options, then click on Edit Options. Under Edit Options, scroll down to Messaging & Notification. In this area, scroll down to Default Thread Subscription Mode and click on the drop down menu to change it to no email notification. click to enlarge I hop that is what you were asking about. |

Please read the thread "Web Subscription Query/Problem.
The Messaging and Notifications option *might* only affect new subscriptions. You may have to delve further to change notifications on older subscribed threads. Please read through the whole thread, it's not very long. I hope this helps. |
