Automatic Thread Subscriptions

[Kiirnodel]

I've gone into the settings and un-checked the box for automatically subscribing to threads, but these forums are still automatically having me subscribed to threads when I post to them.

What's the point of that check-box in the settings if it doesn't do anything. When I do a quick-reply, that doesn't mean I want to get a notification at the end of the day saying that I posted.

Is there a way to make it so the default is to not be subscribed to every thread I post to? Or at the very least make it so that I don't get messages clogging up my email?
