Keep getting article alerts. Can I stop it?

I'm receiving alerts everyday from staff member @CommManagerJ since he created 3 articles.

And keep receiving new alerts every time he modified them. All day long.

For the one on the left just block the element with ublock origin, I did yesterday and it works great for me zero alerst since then. As far as the upper right thats a little more complicated because if you block it then all Alerts will be blocked, but i think you can edit that in your user settings because i managed to stop getting alerts on that upper right box from Articles after screwing around in my user profile.

So I'm not alone!

This is a forum issue and users shouldn't have to use ad blocker to disable it.

Can't believe the new forum software XenForo 2.0 has so many bugs!

I agree its a forum issue and we should not need to deal with it, but seriously look at how much of a crap show this forum "upgrade" has been. On mobile its completely unusable, the adds are out of control and taking over the website.

So if the site devs put zero effort into setting up the adds properly thats ok im putting zero effort into dealing with their crap and am just going to run a adblocker and they can loose ad revenue.

Bottom line im not putting in any more time than i have to to fix their incompetence, as it is im looking for a more user freindly forums to hang out at, at this point even H is better than this crap.
 
I used to program a bit and I really can't believe how this kind of bugs will happen, if ever.

Why on earth if you are not watching anything, the alerts keep coming out? Can't the XenForo programmers even know how to count?
 
Alerts have a timeout period of a few hours in case you miss it. This is not a bug but a feature.

The problem is it keeps coming back.

Your last article was updated yesterday 11:42AM, and the alerts still appears one day later, even if I clicked it several times already.

And why should I be alerted with articles that I'm not interested?

Should I be notified whenever someone creates articles?

This is the main issue IMO, all this crap should default to off and then user can add alerts for what they want to see as they desire, not be defaulted to all alerts all the time.

they obviously dont care if you use a adblocker and seem to encourage it.
