When starting a new thread, the “Subscribe to this thread and notify me of changes” checkbox default to off, but I’d wager that 90% of the time, if someone’s starting a new thread, they want to know about replies - that should probably default to on, and the dropdown next to it “Daily, using email” ---

Hello there. I am not sure if this has already been changed as per your suggestion, but looking at my own settings (which are default) this option is selected. Regards, Salvadore ---

Weird - maybe the defaults now are different than when you signed up. I went into my account settings and was able to change the default for my account.
