I guess this may be a dumb question. But if I turn off immediate notifications will the notification bar still light up?> I would like to not receive any emails since I already log in every hour regardless./

I dislike that the options to disable email notifications are greyed out. Maybe im just doing something wrong?

I only get email notifications when some one quotes one of my posts or when someone comments on a topic I'm following. You can customize ur email notifications.

but as I see it, there is no way to completely turn off emails in your settings.

I receive zero emails. My notification frequency setting is on "none" in the drop down menu. Then it doesn't matter what is clicked off... Whenever you follow a thread it gives you a choice if you want email notifications or not.

I still have an issue here. If I turn all my notifications to off I am not receiving the notifications in the bar at the top. I either have to suffer hundreds of emails or manually check each forum im following.

Can someone actually explain how I can keep emails off and continue to receive the notifications at the top of the page? All my settings are currently set to None

So there is no way to keep the light bar lit up? :crying:

Haha even this reply I had to manually see if anyone posted.

In the notification box you can click message or email. If you follow a thread you can click to not get emaila from it.

I don't get any e-mails nor notifications and yet I'm still up to date with all the forums/threads I follow.

I just click on "My profile" on the right and then choose "Content I follow".

And there I'm able to see every thread I follow and see if there are any new posts.

That's the easiest way IMHO.

That's what im currently doing, it just stinks the way this system is set up without being able to turn off notification via emails.

I want to be able to load this page and just glance at the top to see if theres anything new and turn off. Not have to go through 3 different pages to get there.
