What are these? I get a ton of them in my email for AG to old threads?
 
I don't remember, I just post, don't think I hit subscribe anything. These threads are older though with no recent post, like out of no where I just got like 20 emails from AG that says "new linkback to such and such thread"
 
Same here occassionally. There will be a long list of them. They are usually duplicates of ones that I've gotten before that were "reply to...". These say "linkback" rather than reply to.....

I'm in the same boat Surfer. When I reply to a thread I get instant email notifications from then on out. However, I have no idea what the linkbacks are all about. I just got a bunch of them as well and they were all very old threads.
 
you can go to your user cp and go to the edit options and half way on the middle of the page you will see a subscribe to threads options you can set it to not subscribe.
 
I want the notification emails, just don't know why I (& others) get the linkback emails. They aren't the same as the instant email notifications and the threads they send me to are typically quite old.

It's not a big deal at all, just more a curiosity as to what the linkbacks are and why I get them in bunches long after a thread is dead.
