A minor note, but I have disabled this forum’s “act as email mailing list” feature.
This feature was off by default and not used by a ton of users - but it generated a ton of emails, sending every new post out to users who had enabled it. Many of whom are no longer active on the site. Disabling this option will save considerably on costs associated with hosting this forum.
It is still possible to get summary digest emails from the site if you like to get periodic updates. Visit your user preferences (via account link at top right) to tweak those options to fit your needs.
Thanks
