    All you have to do is look at your settings and you can change it. It is not rocket science here people. I think the problem is people like to complain instead of doing anything for themselves.

    Thanks Ace for that brilliant piece of psychological insite. You the man! I guess if I spent more time on this site instead of out actually diving then I may have known how to stop these reminders like you do.

    I'm a member of 3 other scuba diving forums and non of those have ever sent me email reminders that I haven't visited the site lately. This is a new board and the folks here are trying to get and retain members by sending reminders to everyone that they haven't been here lately with no explanation as to how to turn them off. It may not be "Rocket Science" to you but a short explanation of how to disable these reminders contained in the email wouldn't be to much to ask for. As I said in my first post I have sent several emails asking how to turn it off but I received no response. If you don't want threads like this then explane to people how to stop the spam. I don't need a reminder to tell me that I haven't visited this site lately, I know I haven't been here in awhile and there is a reason for it, I actually dive instead of just talking about it.

    Thanks to IDiverChick for the belated explanation.

    Safe diving to everyone.

    No problem, glad to help.

    Anyway, I guess I am just lucky enough to get to dive and also check out the site!

    Anyway, if you still can not figure out how to resolve the issue, let me know and I will email you instructions (hint: it is just as easy as writing a message complaining about the problem) By the way, great idea you have to include a link in the email to stop receiving the messages.

    Anyway, I have to get ready for my dive, so see ya later.

    If we posted an explanation somewhere in t he forum about how to turn off the ability for the Administrator to send auto email reminders once a month in the event that you have not visited the forum in over 30 days I can pretty much guarantee poeople wouldn't find it.

    But, yes, that is a great idea about putting in a simple turn off admin e-mail explanation in the we miss you e-mail....we'll work on that right away.

    OK, On 3, ready.....one.....two.....three!!! Everybody Hug!!! Feel better! Turn the testorone down a bit boys. and let's try to play nice.
    I agree with Daddy-H20, and I never agree with anyone, probably just having a bad day and the SPAM just hit the last nerve. No need for name calling, and comparing Dive logs.
