#14: "if you're so email sensitive, you can disable being sent emails..."

This is what was configured in all wikis. Until LiquidThread was added that
forced the subscription without asking me.

Yes I have removed the FORCED subscriptions from the wikis that have sent me
tons of emails through LQT.

I just hope that this won't occur in other wikis that I have visited in the
past for some very active pages, when they will adopt LQT with the "default on"
subscription option, despite ALL other email options were already disabled
there (including for messages sent on my talk page on almost all wikis, except
only ONE that I regularly visit, because my user page explicitly says where to
post comments and how to contact me).

For me it's much enough that all people can contact me via the talk page of my
main wiki that I have publicized (and the admins of the wikis can still write
to my email address in case of emergency): the talk page on my main wiki is
still a perfect contact address for almost all people, and a valid substitute
to an email address that I don't want to be polluted by messages coming from
possibly hundreds of sources, and I better trust the admins on my main wiki
than the few "non-working" admins of small wikis which are regularly spammed
without much active control.
