Default RE: How Do I Stop the E-mails?

To change your settings so that you don't automatically subscribe to a thread when you post you need to click on the "Settings" tab at the upper right of any RCU screen (other than the main home page). Once there scroll down to the "My Preferences" section. On the second item in that section deselect "<span style="font-family: verdana, arial; font-size: 11px; background-color: rgb(251, 252, 255);">Always Subscribe to threads when I post" </span>to turn that feature off.<div>
</div><div>I would like to apologize for the frustrations you are having. Unfortunately RCU is a victim of it's own success. When RCU was first started the owners selected a forum software to use for their platform. Over the years whenever they needed new features they would write their own code to accomplish what was needed. This made RCU a very VERY specialized software over the years. In addition, the maker of the original software has gone out of business so there is no support from them. </div><div>
</div><div>The other issue involved is the sheer size of RCU. RCU is a huge software package that spans many different servers and many different operating systems, which makes any move something that must be done very carefully. When RCU was purchased by Internet Brands 2 years ago unfortunately several things "broke" during the move to the new server farm, and the new owners have spent a lot of time to fix those problems. However, IB does know that RCU needs upgraded and that is in the process of happening. Unfortunately I don't have a target date at this time as when that will roll out, but rest assured it is coming. As I said, the size of RCU means that any move to a new software package must be done very carefully to make sure it works properly.</div><div>
</div><div>Once again, I do apologize for your problems. But as I said, change is coming and RCU will be bigger and better once it's finished.</div><div>
