Sorry but this forum is the most confusing and difficult computer experience I ca from it?n recall having since I started with computers back in 1988.

I'm not a big user but I have used computers ( but not as a toy) continuously since then and this forum is just a BAD user experience.

How do I remove myself

    Don't post anything, and don't reply to anyone if you receive an email based on a message you've already posted

    Click your avatar picture near the upper right corner (slightly to the left of the pencil) and select PREFERENCES then set all Email Preferences to OFF and click Save at the bottom left

    AND

    Another feature is that Jive is oriented toward social networking... so every time you start or reply to a message you are automatically added to a FOLLOW list... meaning you receive a notification of every subsequent message in that thread

    .

    Click the FOLLOW link at the upper right and select STOP FOLLOWING... and don't click the link again to check your status, as you will then be added to the CONNECTIONS STREAM and you will have to uncheck that option as well

    .

    And, after you post in a message thread and select Stop Following, you need to do it all over again the next time you add a reply to the same message thread, since EVERY POST adds you to the automatic Follow list
