Default android app notifications won't stop

Recently the notification feature went rogue on me. On my Evo LTE, I keep the push notifications feature off so that my phone doesn't make noise or show the icon in my notifications screen and across the top of my phone every time a thread I'm subscribed to gets a reply.I just want to receive email notifications only.

Now that happens all the time and I can't make it stop. Sometimes logging out seems to stop it, but not all the time. WTF? Anyone know how to stop the sound and alerts? I like just getting emails for notifications, not actual phone noises all day long.

Go to settings, then sound, then default notifications and click silent. this should stop it for you.

Might be a better option to answer your question:

Droid Forum - Verizon Droid & the Motorola Droid Forum

My question is how do you get the notifications to stop? Period!! I don't recall changing a setting and now every time something is posted (jk-forum) that I am subscribed to it appears in my status bar. I feel all these notifications are killing my battery.

Guess I will get even more now that I replied to this thread (lol).

I use Google chrome as my web browser on my PC and did a sync last week. I am wondering if it is because I have the Gmail client on my phone in combination with the sync??... I have Tapatalk on my home PC and maybe since I synced Google Chrome, my phone has picked up my profile settings and now has the same thing??... My phone notifications do not appear to be from Tapatalk though. I did notice that I am receiving notifications from another forum I subscribed to a year ago but no longer use... so I wouldn't think it is a jk-forum issue.

UPDATE: Okay, I cleared my tapatalk notifications and defaulted the notification checking from every 1 minute to every 30 minutes. I will respond to a few threads. If this has anything to do with tapatalk and Google Chrome syncing then I should see some messages in about a half an hour on my phone. If I see anything sooner then I will investigate further.

My notifications come from the jk forum app, not tapatalk. And I don't just want to silence them, I want them to stop because they appear in my notifications bar

I can't get mine to stop either, using the forum app. I have deselected the notifications and still receive them. Thing is I get notifications that are weeks old and not current notifications.
