All of a sudden I am getting numerous emails regarding posts here which I never participated in. When I go into my settings and try to disable things and click "Save", nothing happens. It seems that all my settings have been reset and I am unable to change them. I have tried three different browsers, all unable to save changes. How do I get this fixed????

If you subscribed as a Member to a Forum Group (TV, Internet, Phone and/or Apps), you'll get spammed.
Subscribing to the Cox Forum (creating an account) is one thing but subscribing to a Group is another.
If you return to your Profile, there should be a Group section. Unsubscribe. You can still partake in the Group but I think the biggest thing is you can't upload images.
It's a weird design.
I'm stalking you.
The culprit is the Internet Forum (Group).

The inability to "Save" settings has been a known issue for a long time.

Are you getting actual emails? Or are you receiving notifications here in the Forum?
I remember this thread. Was it you trying to create a checklist or something to upload images? I doubt it was you but somebody around this time got mad at me for participating and "stealing his or her thunder." Funny time.

I remember it too.

I know you know it was me. What I don't know is why you want to dredge all that up again a year later.

I didn't care that you participated in the conversation, if you want to call it that. But you mostly just provided unsolicited, personal preferences. You didn't try to help with research or testing. After I spent a significant amount of my time researching, testing and documenting "How to: Paste clipboard images and upload files", you used my post to create a version to claim as your own work.

I called you on it, but I didn't say anything about "stealing" anybody's "thunder" as you seem to be indicating with the quote marks.

It wasn't funny then and it isn't funny now.
