This is a slight spoiler but the odds are, if you are here, you're looking for exactly this information. Basically, Preston Garvey is someone who will give you random quests to help settlers, and instead of asking you if you want to help, he will force each new quest upon you any time you turn in a completed one, or walk remotely near him. He seriously will not stop, ever. Via suggestions around the 'nets and some trial and error, I've worked out the sequence to successfully turning in Preston's missions while avoiding new ones.
Resetquest questid - reset a companions hire quest (if resetting your companion results in him or her giving generic responses to dialogue prompts). List of questids (Fallout 3). Lagu that why you go away mltr. Rdf - reset all dialogue flags. Multiple followers: By resurrecting and killing Dogmeat (prid 6a775) you will free a companion slot. Repeat process after hiring. Sumoman download for mac. All side quests also reset so you can go through it all again. Carols for a merry tubachristmas pdf reader. Could be an interesting addon for Fallout 4 and lets you keep leveling with more interesting quests. People want things to do at the end of the main quest and it's mostly a bunch of radiants so why not reset side quests atleast.
1. Walk up to Preston and talk to him to start turning in the quest. He'll say a random thank-you/grats line or two.
2. Stay in front of Preston for the moment. He will now say something along the lines of 'I have a new mission for you.' Let him say this first line, otherwise the turn-in XP doesn't seem to pop properly in the next step.
3. As Preston is beginning to speak the first few words of the actual mission, walk/run away from him slightly and bring up your Pip-boy

the moment you see the XP reward for the quest you just turned in. (If you stay standing there staring at Preston, the Pip-boy seems unresponsive. To be safe, you want to at least stay within earshot for this step or the turn-in XP may not pop.)4. Fast-travel to somewhere else (Red Rocket Truck Stop will do).
5. Wait a few moments to make sure the new mission didn't register. Bask in the glow of the quest reward XP.

6. Done! :D
I managed to do this for two quests in a row, fast-traveling to Red Rocket Truck Stop both times without the new quest registering. Eat my shorts, Preston!
Update: It appears even if you never hear about the quests, you can fail them, which is stupid and has to be one of the worst game design decisions ever made. I've read elsewhere that failing those quests results in a permanent happiness loss at the related settlement, but I can't confirm this yet (I will at some point because screw Preston and his stupid quests). Every other faction I've come across with repeatable quests asks first you if you want to do them. And of course, it doesn't matter how ridiculously-fortified each settlement is, someone will always get kidnapped or think raiders can get through missile turrets and guards armed to the teeth. Stupid. Seriously, devs.. what were you thinking? I'd shoot Preston between the eyes myself at this point, but he's immortal due to being a companion choice.

Update 2: Regarding the previous update, failing quests you never got in the first place may be glitched to not actually matter. I noticed that quests marked as failed for this reason seemed to reset if I went and talked to Preston out of curiosity. He gave me the failed quests all over again as if they were brand new (same location and everything) and didn't whine at me for having failed anything.
