  Why has WP decided to have the box auto checked to receive all comments on a post you’ve commented on. In order to NOT get all the comments you have to remember to uncheck the box. Before you had to check it to get comments. This is driving me crazy because I forget half the time to uncheck the box and my email is jammed with other’s comments I don’t really care to see. Please, please, please put it back the other way.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Lots of people are reporting this, and they all hate it. You can contact staff via your dashboard and let them know what you feel about it.

  This is infuriating – it fills up my emails every time I log on. Does anyone know how we can stop it?
