After much thought, and still getting multiple copies of the same email .... recently I got seven copies of TOP gaming deals from this week ... I have now unchecked 'Wishlist Emails'. That doesn't solve the multiple emails, but at least reduces how many daily emails I get from GOG, especially as with around 900 entries on my wishlist, I often get more than one wishlist email a day ... can be a few in a day, and in big sales they are large emails.
I've been reluctant to do this, but have made improvements to my wishlist checking program, so I am now going to rely on that instead. Of the around 900 entries on my wishlist, about half have been added to my wishlist checking program, and of that around 85 are designated as a favorite, and they are now the only ones I check, which currently takes less than two minutes.
If you are curious to know, I add games and DLCs to my GOG wishlist if I have some degree of interest in them, with many just making it over the line. Around half of them, I have a greater level of interest in, and currently 85 of those I have a high level of interest or desire for. Price is always the deciding factor for anything on my wishlist, but means an instant buy for any of the 85 once a fair price is reached. With the others on my wishlist, it means re-checking them when the price is reduced enough. The half I am least interested in, need to be a significantly low price for me to even bother to re-check.
For now, I will only be checking the 85 favorites each day, at least twice a day. I also check the Free Games page once a day for new demos and free games. I will check the main page once or twice a week now for new games, but I still get those emails. If I miss any good bargains so be it ... with over 1700 games at GOG now and more than that combined from other places, I have plenty to go on with. :)
This is all part of my aim to spend less time at GOG each day, which also helps reduce my angst over things that should be done at GOG, but aren't. Call it a limited boycott if you like. LOL
I have also decided to participate less in the forum, which will no doubt please a few. :P
I looked deeply at why I and others post in the forum ... the likely reasons outside of trying to get help or information or provide such. Plus I looked at the types of people that often post, especially the negative and or aggressive things, and decided I could do without that stuff or nonsense on a daily basis. My life is a hell of a lot more than gaming, and I am not that desperate for a conversation with others, that I should be tolerating all the crap as much as I have been. I've got better things to do in my retirement. :)
This is my last post in this thread, and also the last time I will look at it. GOG will fix things or they won't.
Cheers!
Have fun!
P.S. I have spent the last week trialing some of my new approach to GOG, and it has gone well. :)
