Ah old website! That's spamming my freakin e-mail acount! help.
« on: November 22, 2008, 09:36:17 pm »

Grr, O.K. this is a weird thing to say. I use to go on this site when I was new to the interwebz. Long story short I got banned...

Well now a few years latter I get a wonderful surprise! :D

It's annoying, btw the forum is a forum of a site,(grammar atheletics!) which is for roms, you know the stuff for commercial games, and such; they have a very good library of said roms I must add!

Anyway, would anyone mind going on to there, and telling them I don't want spam in my e-mail acount? Please, I've already marked their messages as spam, and the site still keeps sending them in! Btw I  should mention I've tried telling them myself, they must have my ip blocked... I've already tried signing up a new account with a differnt e-mail, and that old one "Gone today back tommarow or when I want" (Oh look, grammar error!) well trying to log on the website with that one is a waste of time!

I wonder is this kind of stuff is illegal? Not that I would do anything that bad, I just want an explaination, and the problem solved.

That took me a while to realize what you were talking about. Not that I even know what a milo is.

Neither do I. What I do know, however, is that CAPTAIN CACTUS appreciates them.

It's sort of like getting.

"The hedgehog has died of old age" In the middle of a battle.

Although that dosn't help stop the spam I keep getting. :(

I think Milo might be a guy who posts a lot.

ROMs are in fact illegal, because you are not paying for the games that you are downloading. It is rather unlikely that you'd be prosecuted though, but doing illegal stuff is bad.

Anyway, maybe you could get in touch with another member and ask them to tell the site administrators about this.

Honestly though... could someone help? I seem to recall not being able to get rid of this, it's been going on for a few months now, at first it was just two messages, but nooo than it turned into 200+!

Bloody yanks not knowing what Milo is. Drink of the gods, it is. Damn right you should show your appreciation.

To fix your problem, just add that email address to your Spam email folder. I mean, you said it yourself, you were banned from there years ago, and you aren't likely to start getting any constructive or worthwhile messages any time soon. That way you can at least ignore the messages, even if they keep on coming (and if you've got an email account that tells you that Spam counts as 'New Messages' then just change email addresses to a system that does and simply re-direct the emails to your new account)

As well, all the posts i've seen you make are flame posts, barely if at all constructive.

I have no idea what that one is. Wait... wiking oh I see now, but wait! Goggling... O.K., but wwaaiit! Dictionary.com... ah I see now.

You wrote allot of words. Of which 80% I got, I'm pretty sure that the last is more important. I'm not even at dabbling in computers.
