How to unsubscribe to list for notifications of random forum threads?
Hi, I remember signing up for a forum/mailing list ages ago and I wonder where is the link to untag myself from it as I keep getting notifications for random threads I've visited before and unsubscribe from. This is different from the recent Motivational Support list. Thanks.
There is no list, unfortunately. When you see a notification from a thread you don't want to be subscribed to anymore, you'll just have to manually go to the thread and unsubscribe.
@calmHemlock64 As Phthalo has stated the only way is to go to said thread and press "unsubscribe"
@BurningEmber @Phthalo Thanks but I wasn't even subscribed/didn't even comment on those threads in the first place and I get them in my notifications...
@calmHemlock64
Oh so you were tagged to them? Mmmm. You ask those people not to tag you
:) I have moved your thread to the appropriate section ! have a wonderful day. @calmHemlock64
@calmHemlock64 There is a community event tag list, not sure if that's what you're referring to? I would have to go and search for that as it was quite a while ago.
There are quite a few threads that are just promoted to announcements. for those there isn't a subscribe/unsubscribe option.

Tagging some admins that may know more than me XD
@Iara @Heather @Laura
@Ciaran1 Thanks for the tag!
@calmHemlock64 Its hard to say where they might have added you in the tags...In my experience, some people just used taglist previously made by others (that appear in forums) to threads they make to see if it sparks their interest. If you find yourself being tags that you dont want, you can politely send a PM to that person and let them know you would prefer not being tagged in future post. If you cannot PM them you can let them know by posting in the thread instead, but when you do please remember to check that the "Subscribe to this Thread" is unmark otherwise you will keep getting reminders for that thread :)
When you get the notification, go to the thread. You will see a button to unsubscribe there. Here is a screenshot of what you will see, and where to click

I appreciate the help but I am not subscribed to a single one of the threads (and I know how to unsubscribe from threads I am previously subscribed to) and they still appear in my notifications even though my name is not added to any of the posts on the threads themselves
@calmHemlock64
Is it these ones?

There are writing prompts and icebreakers and similar topics that keep get added to the notifications for everyone. These tend to be recycled over time.
I understand how some of the more important alerts are necessary, they should remove the blue alerts for random forum threads though...
@calmHemlock64
The ability to opt out of these or to have less of them.
I don't mind some of them, but at times I think they are excessive. I know others who are annoyed by these too.
