Can you mute the thread? Does that clean up your notifications?
Oh I guess you can’t mute posts. But you can unsubscribe from threads
No you can't mute posts. How do I unsub to a thread?

It's true. I've been posting some longer comments but the replies were all spammy.
He can change the parameters for this one as well. Just need to set that unworthy one word comments will disqualify the participant.
I don't know if he wants to do it at this point since they have been allowed for two days now. I don't mind this idea but probably the contest probably shouldn't have been a week and should have discouraged spam. It's fun but the point is try and make SN better not have everyone's notifications filled with nonsense so they can't even see legitimate posts and comments. I zapped a couple of your posts from earlier today that came into my notifications but I wouldn't have even noticed them if I didn't scroll down all the way to the rewards notifications to make sure I didn't miss anything. Must have been 100 comments, almost all garbage.
I agree. Two of my posts yesterday went unnoticed and I blame the spam comments on this post.
One of the two was about a Bitcoin course. I'm pretty sure that stackers have interest in such a news. But it was buried, not a single zap!!
Or may be some penalty like when someone spams the comments for the first time, he'll get a minus, for the second time a bigger minus and for the third time all his previous comments become void.
You are right and I’m sorry but I will fix the notification spam this week if not today, see #951622

Hearst Castle in San Simeon, California, was designed by female architect Julia Morgan. In 1919, she was hired by publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst to design a main building and guest houses for his ranch, but she ended up purchasing everything from Spanish antiquities to Icelandic moss to reindeer for the Castle’s zoo, which was once the world’s largest private zoo
The building One Times Square was built in 1904 as the headquarters for the New York Times. It’s been home to the New Year’s Eve Ball Drop Celebration since 1907, when the first New Year’s Eve ball was made of iron and wood, one hundred 25-watt bulbs and weighed 700 pounds. Today’s ball is 12 feet in diameter and weighs almost six tons with 2,688 Waterford Crystal triangles bolted to 672 LED modules attached to the aluminum frame.

Wonder Bread was created in Indianapolis in 1921 at the Taggart Baking Company. The owner of Taggart went to the first race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, which was actually a hot air balloon race, and the view and “wonder” of the experience inspired the brand’s name and colorful circle design on its packaging.

Wearing a tie can reduce blood flow to the brain by 7.5 per cent. A study in 2018 found that wearing a necktie can reduce the blood flow to your brain by up to 7.5 per cent, which can make you feel dizzy, nauseous, and cause headaches. They can also increase the pressure in your eyes if on too tight and are great at carrying germs.
As Food52 reported, the San Francisco syrup company Torani is said to have invented the flavored latte in 1982. Its origin story alleges that the retired coffee industry veteran LC “Brandy” Brandenburg created a flavored latte out of steamed milk, espresso and Torani’s vanilla and orange syrups, which he dubbed “Fantasia.”
M&M’S Chocolate Candies were introduced in 1941, and one selling point is that they wouldn’t melt in warm weather. In 1950, a black “M” was added to the candy so consumers could tell the difference between the real deal and imitations. The "M" was changed to white in 1954.

To determine how far away a lightning storm is from you, National Geographic Kids says you can count the seconds between the flash and the crack and watch for the flash of lightning from a safe location. Time how many seconds elapse before you hear thunder. Divide the number of seconds by five and the answer is the approximate number of miles away.
@ek your well intentioned effort to drive engagement on SN has gotten out of control. My notifications have become completely inundated by utter nonsense one word, one character comments. It is all spam now. This is not improving the SN experience, it is ruining it.
I applaud your efforts in running this contest. I think next time if we do something similar the parameters for what will be accepted as a legitimate comment should be stricter.
