WTF with these annoyingly useless retroactive “new features” e-mails???

Nobody: “”
Shield plugin: “sends another notification”

Hi there,

I’ve already said in many occasion that I really like Shield. I’m using it since it was called “WordPress Simple Firewall”.

Cool.

However you started lately to introduce new features. That’s cool too, I understand that.

Problem is: you’re always adding annoyingly useless email notifications, activating these notification even on old installations.

THIS IS WRONG. VERY ANNOYING. NOT REQUESTED. Is is NOT that the more e-mail you send, the better the plugin. It simply DOESN’T work that way.

As I already explained here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/please-i-pray-you-disable-by-default-the-annoying-abandoned-plugin-feature/

COPY PASTING:

All the website i made had the automatic update for Shield turned on. Now, ALL the website I made during my whole life are sending to me e-mails regarding the use of abandoned plugins.

I’m talking about 100+ e-mails every time.

Now, since A LOT of time passed, I do not mantain those website, I do not have backend access, neither I am willing to contact all my life long clients to provide them support in disabling this (UPDATE: given useless) feature.

So PLEASE, I beg you, deploy an update where this feature is replaced with a backend warning instead of sending email. Just make the e-mail optional.

It is really annoying and useless.
