IS it possible to set it so that when a user makes a post that they are not automatically subscribed to that post to receive email notifications of other posts?

Are you wanting to disable notifications or just prevent it from auto-subscribing?

To disable notifications all together, the user can go edit their profile and under Site Options, set Send Notifications to No.

To disable it from autosubscribing, you'd have to make a minor code modification so the checkbox doesn't default to being on. In CreateEditForumPostForm, around like 355, you'll find this:

if (csContext.User.IsAnonymous || !csContext.User.EnableThreadTracking)

   {

   SubscribeToThreadCheckBox.Checked = false;

   SubscribeToThreadCheckBox.Visible = false;

   }

   else

   SubscribeToThreadCheckBox.Checked = false;

Change the bold part and it will not be checked by default.
