I've been getting a lot more spam e-mails since i've been registered here.

I was going to bring it up privately, but if the site is having problems, then maybe others should know.

Anyway, in case it is my details being read from here, could an admin please delete my account and details?

Cheers.

Really, DRW? Feelings hurt that badly?

FYI - this isn't a spam issue, at least not for me.

And now I'm sorry I brought it up because while Bill is probably off running all kinds of scans, I'm thinking it was a local site (as in from my town)...

That's actually when this started...

So sorry Bill...

I'll delete your account Mr. W.

I'm afraid. They're at my door. They keep watch on my street. There's a hidden microphone in my garbage disposal. And now they invade my board !!!

Don't be silly, Jim.

It's either here or Goodman Games, and i've contacted them too.

Either that or just coincidence.

If neither account is to blame, then i can rejoin at my leisure can't i?

We are secure here Jim. The servers run scans automatically ever 4 hours. That said, it is better safe than sorry. I would prefer a mention rather than not.

Also, our membership emails and such are not available to the public. Our db has not been hacked.

In that case, don't worry about deleting my account.

I joined here and Goodman at about the same time and pretty much since then, i've been getting 3 or 4 times the amount of spam that i've been getting over 4 years or so.

I blame them. I blame the Illuminati. I blame my cousin. I blame aglets.

No, you're gone. Don't ever speak to me again. Don't think you can live under my roof and not follow my rules. When you've grown up enough to realize how good you had it here - then you can come back.

Which is actually yes...whenever you'd like. The sooner the better.

Yup. Nothing in my own experience bears out that this is an issue related to this website.
