“Check out the updates on the AIBU poll” emails so annoying!

I know there’ll be a way of switching these off…. They are incredibly annoying. I don’t get any other MN emails apart from when someone has tagged me which is useful.
But I get these.
Sometimes I vote in an AIBU poll but I literally never find it helpful to have an email prompt to go back and look at the results. Never. They just succeed in irritating me and reminding myself not to bother voting.

Hi OP

To customise email notifications, you need to go to Talk (the purple tab below our logo on the top left) if you click on this, you'll see 'Talk: customise'. Under 'Talk options', right at the bottom, you'll see 'Notify me when others post on threads I'm watching' followed by a tickbox.

Uncheck the tickbox that applies and you should stop receiving bothersome email notifications.

We hope that helps but do get back to us if you have any problems.

Hi @ShowOfHands,

Have you got access to the desktop site? If so, at the top of any thread you'll find the large word 'Talk' - next to it there's a circle with a down arrow. If you click on the arrow, then click on 'Customise' and scroll down to the end of the page, you'll find the following options:

Notifications feed alert:
Notify me when others post on threads I'm watching:
Notify me when others mention me in a thread:
Notify me when there are updates on AIBU polls:

Just tick or untick each box, as required.

Here's the link to the Talk Customise page if you can't see the circle/arrow.
