It's far more common that you just want to give an answer than that you want to get emails about the answers of others. I think the option to follow a question should be unchecked by default (or at least make it a configurable setting).
I think someone from the HP team answered this last week. If I remember correctly, once you uncheck the box when answering a question or post, it should stay unchecked for you in the future.
Yesterday we released this feature in response to users who requested it. However, it looks like we made a mistake: unlike our previous notification checkboxes, this feature does not remember your last selection. I will add it to my task list.
I would like to see this turned off by default, I keep accidentally subscribing to threads >.<. It remembers my selection most of the time, but occasionally I end up subscribing to another thread
Our long term plan is to make this a setting in your profile, so that you can simply uncheck the box in one place and have it remember your preference permanently.
However, until then we hope that this cookie-based preference will be meet your needs.

I just noticed under my profile when I went to edit the background, about the HubPro. I have not noticed it there before. The box is checked yes as to hubs eligible to be edited by HubPro and I do not remember saying yes to this being done. Is this an automatic thing by HP and we...

Dear HubPages staff,Is there any way I can configure the default page that displays when I enter HubPages to see only hubs and not the crap questions or forum entries? I'll check out the questions/forums when I want to, but to see all the religious/political trollings posed as serious questions......
