Anyone else get one of these? On the one hand, it's nice to get spam that isn't about enlarging something or making $$$ fast, but on the other, until about halfway through the first sentence, I thought it might be someone who was interested in helping with my game, or something equally cool. Man, life sucks. Or at least, e-mail does. Or at least, penis-enlargement spam does; that one I'm sure of.
At least we know that RPGDX attracts high-quality spammers. This was one of them fancy HTML e-mails and everything, and it had a little image of RPGDX's main page, just so that I knew they had really been here, and really care about me.
Is this off-topic? It's RPGDX related, but then again, it's mostly just me bitching about stuff. Oh, well, I'm sure a moderator will take care of it one way or another.

When my host went down, I got a personalized spam for some data redundancy service once. I thought it was cute.

Here's a fun toy for spambots.
http://rs4.anti-leech.com/spam/spambot_stopper.php
Try it, it's fun.
Anyways, if you want the bots to leave you alone, select "no" for "Always show my e-mail address" in your profile. 'cause if you click on profile under one of your posts, you get your hotmail addy. Do that on all Forums you can, and you'll get less spam.

ugh, yeah... I've had this wonderful bullshit spam about indierpg.net, then about indie-rpg.net... probably got it about rpgdx.net as well... I've had the same kind of spam for many other sites as well... and never for any sites which were actually mine, of course.
Stupid spammers... I fully support the slow, painful dismemberment, of such morons. _________________ "Goth is a way for ugly people to be interesting."

Yeah, but b_lindeijer@hotmail.com is my Hotmail address. I don't really care about the spam sent there, and most of it gets filtered out automatically anyway.
