Also my sentiments. I'm subbed here to browse questions that interest me AND have a discussion.

The heavy-handed method of moderating here definitely raises my ire when thought-provoking questions go without answers or are deleted.

But, a man's house is his castle, so I relent on that digression for another day.

The point is, as a casual sub-goer, I would prefer this as an opt-in.

On a less acerbic note, i'm in the same boat as the above, i'm not getting getting messages 24/7 on reddit so it was a happy surprise to me.

And I would not opposed to a bi-weekly blast, because if an interesting question gets answered, and has a discussion behind it, I wouldn't be opposed to just glancing over it.

But make it opt-in, bi-weekly, and if you can't make this happen, I might eschew the idea altogether.

Unfortunately, we really have no control over this. We are trying this out as a beta test for the Reddit admins, and while we're going to pass along all of the criticism and praise being posted here for the way this is coming off, I just want to stress that we can't make *anything* happen because this is a Reddit architecture issue, and not some service we've created.
