Not wanting emails constantly sent for everything...

... and having un-checked the appropriate boxes in my preferences and "Saved," I still get emails about someone posting on threads I've posted on, among other things. I wouldn't mind occasional emails about forum announcements, but I get tired of emails being sent for every little thing.
 
Solution
Account > Preferences > Content Options
Account > Account Details > Email Options

Are all of those unchecked?

If so, that means you're getting emails from threads that you interacted with in the past, before you updated your settings... in that case, do the following:
  1. Go here: https://wizardforums.com/watched/threads
  2. Scroll to the bottom and click "Select All"
  3. In the dropdown next to it, select "Disable email notification"
  4. Press "Go"
That should disable notifications for all the threads you were "watching" before you turned off the setting in your profile.

If this still doesn't work or if you're having some issue with it, lemme know and I'll try doing it from the back end.
