Subscribe to Comments
August 18th, 2006 · Posted in Meta · 7 CommentsI’ve enabled email subscription to comments, so you can get an email whenever someone comments after you. I used to have this before, but it got lost in an upgrade I think.
Anyway, you can also subscribe to comments without actually posting anything.
A quick question – should I default this to on or off?

Default on

Oh, my vote is default off. But I have never used this feature before, so I’m not sure what it does. I will turn it on for this comment and see what happens!

Hi Tracy, you should get an email when I post this comment. That’s how it works
If you turn it on, you’ll get notified whenever someone else posts another comment.
Like so.

Also – when I say it would default to ‘on’, that would just mean the box is ticked when you first post, you could always untick it if you wanted.

that’s a neat feature. I have never seen that before.
I don’t have a strong preference on the default setting, but I still think my vote would be default off. I think that I would probably uncheck it more often than I would check it. I think I will use it sometimes though.
thanks for helping with my experiment!

I have tick for follow-ups to this comment, and I will do the same for my next few posts.
It sound like a good idea to me but I am going to trial it.
D!

Hi Dez. I will help you with your experiment, too.
