Just a couple of quick tips and things to point out after spending a few minutes chatting with everyone in the group. At this time you either can't (or it's not apparent how to) opt out of chat for a given group. You have to sign out of chat all-together. You can opt out of email notifcations by clicking the "Edit Notifcations" on the top right of the Group window. If you comment on a post, you're automatically subscribed to that post and begin recieving notifcations when others comment. You can also opt out of these on a per-post basis by clicking the "unsubscribe" link under the title of each post. Hope that helps alleviate some of the noise so the group stays useful to everyone.

If you do not turn off the notifications, your inbox will look like mine: http://i.imgur.com/RKQ9y.png http://i.imgur.com/RKQ9y.png I was away from my computer for the past couple hours and came back to 154+ emails. Time to "Edit Notifications"...

  YES! Holy farking email spam! I just got back from a lunch meetup. Someone else had added me and I had hundreds of emails. In a related note, Facebook needs to let you edit notifications via the mobile interface. I looked, and couldn't figure it out. I actually ended up pulling out my Mifi at the end of the meetup and logging on to Facebook with my laptop just so I could opt out. Wow.

  Yeah, I was really happy I had "Skip Inbox" enabled for my Facebook alerts filter.

Is there something else I need to do to stop getting email notifications other than unchecking "Email notifications to: my@email" and clicking Save? I continue to get several emails about new replies to posts I've commented on.
