Re: I Angered Someone
No, this started today. I have not had any angery ST fans on my back for sometime. I think this might be retalation for my post about the Iraq War on SE.net. I am over 650 emails now. They are all the same, sober@@ or something.

Re: I Angered Someone
lol Atro you always think everyone hates you, chances are your publicly displayed email got picked up by some hackers email address farming bot and you got put on the list of people he spams virus emails at. Some post at se.net would not cause this. No offense to you but theres alot better political targets to attack

Re: I Angered Someone
Well the final tally is just under 700 emails. I have just finished deleting them all and am sweeping my system again to be sure none got by.
I beefed up my spam blocker, both on my end and on the AE.net server so hopefully this kind of thing won't become a regular issue. Tomorrow will tell the tail.

to my knownledge, I have never displayed this email publically in any form that could be considered an email address. It has only been used for SEIV gaming purposes. But never the less, its out there now. And to get nearly 700 emails in one day, well that has to be some kind of record?

Re: I Angered Someone
On the subject of weird email experiences a while ago I recieved an email demanding to know what had happened to someone's trainer shipment.
Now a few years back me and a mate had set up a free forum just as joke, I forget the exact reason. So after we finished with it it was found by scam merchants who fill it with offers for all sorts of 'genuine legit phone/trainer/Xbox/etc'. So I changed the layout a bit and added a nice motto
"Dodgy trainers and mobiles available since quite recently.
Helping part fools from money since 1999."
And yet I still get the odd email from people who's stuff hasn't turned up or want some info on the stuff advertised. The message I take from this: some people are stupid.

Re: I Angered Someone
It could be that someone with that address cached on their system has a mailer bot. And is sending out seed mail to every address in their book.
