subscribe to posts help

so this has been annoying me for a little while

at the bottom of replies there's a little check-box for subscribe to this post for some reason this is set to auto-subscribe and i cant find a way to turn it off.

it subscribes me to every reply i make unless i specifically say no don't do that is there any way to turn this off?

That doesn't seem to work.  Mine has been unchecked for a while and I still have to either uncheck the "subscribe to this post" thingy or go to my subscriptions and unsubscribe each time.

I just checked and then unchecked the one in my profile and this will serve as a first test to see if cycling it can do any good.

 No help there.  It still subscribes me to the thread. 

 

I'll report it in the forum issues area.

 

<edit> Reported it, but I had to go to the GalCiv2 forums to do so. I can't get there from the GalCiv3 forums. </edit>

It's done by design. You either have to un-check the button on the post or just ignore the subscriptions.

that only works for posts you create not for posts you reply to
