I am having the same problem Bob, Have'nt found a solution yet...
Unwanted Alerts

Guys, in order for me to fix this, please post some examples of what shows up in your tracked activity list that shouldnt. Please give the topic, the type of post it was (article, news, etc), and who posted it. Then I can try and figure out whats going on. thanks

Sorry Jay, I may not have explained it properly, I really dont think there is anything you can do. I have members of my group who are also Admin's of other Groups. because I am tracking them as part of my Group (I want to be Alerted to any Group postings they may do). I also get Alerts when they post a tourny for the Group they are Admin of "Join My Tourny" etc, as tracked activity, which is fair enough I guess, to be able to track activity just within your own Group would be nice (in my case) but not for most people who like to track site activity most of the time. I enjoy the site, it is very good, its just that most of us want everything, but I do miss being able to list my Group members from the rest of the chess.com members (the sort you discontinued under View Players), but I know you are working on that. Thanks to all the team for a great site.
I belong to a group, and I like to track the members so I can see their group postings, but as some of them belong to other groups, I find I am getting information they post on tourny's etc for these other groups, is there any way to just track info they post for our group only?
