[Nevermind!] Notifications either spam your inbox or are disabled?

What is up with these options?

 

I would love to be wrong on this, but it appears as though the forum is set default to spam your inbox with each topic you follow if you don't change the notification settings each time for that topic. Also, there is no apparent "Send notifications only through forum" option. It's either the option to have no notifications at all for the followed topic, or spam your inbox with every single post made in it. All I want is for a red circle to appear on my notifications icon whenever something new has been posted. Is this not possible anymore?

- What I am describing may not be the actual case and but on first appearance these four options look both very extreme. I would love either better explanations of "Do not send me any notifications" (As in, no notifications by email and still through the forum, or as in absolutely no notifications at all?) or flat out an option for "Only send notifications through the forum".

 

Perhaps:

*An email for when new content is posted

*One email per day with all new content from that day

*One email per week with all new content from that week

*Only send notifications through the forum

*Do not send me any notifications

You can click the link that says Change how the notification is sent to change it from email to just notifications on the forums.
