User blog:Koopawizard7/Too Much E-Mail

Recently, I've had a problem, I went into my e-mail account and found that there were 28 new emails from wikia, telling me that a project I edited has recently been changed.

Oh yeah, there was one more from Runescape telling me I should renew my subscription, but that's beside the point.

And yes, I do check my e-mail often.When this happened, i just checked it the other day, and what's worse? This does happen everyday. This means 25 - 30 new e-mails everyday. It can be annoying. I like seeing the evolution of this wiki, but what I don't like, is 20 extra e-mails that do nothing but clutter my inbox, because all they tell me is that someone updated how many views the project has had. To combat this problem, I went to my e-mail preferences, and said Wikia shouldn't send me anymore e-mails for minor edits. So thinking that now I will only get e-mails alerting me about big changes to a page, I check my e-mail,

And I see there are 26 new e-mails.

Not only that, all the other e-mails I want to read are buried beneath tons of Wikia e-mails, and I've been checking my computer everyday. If I was like Alden, and didn't use the computer for over a month, The e-mails I'd have would probally clog up my virtual inbox.

So, it may seem I'm preaching, or ranting on here, but instead, I'm telling you a story, and the moral of the story is: If you are just correcting a tiny grammer mistake, updating how many supporters the project has, or rewording a sentance to make it sound better, I implore you to click the "Minor Edit" Box. And I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one with this kinf of problem either.
