myBB alter system is not in my favour. I really don't like getting notifications.

You can turn the notifications off, and still see who responded to your posts or threads by clicking on the Alerts link.  I really like it that I can do it that way.  The Alerts link helps to go to the discussions where there have been a response first - I then delete the alerts afterwards, so that with the next session I only deal with the new alerts.
