Got a spam PM today - there is nowhere in the personal message system to flag a PM as spam.

Thanks

Just fwd it to a mod who's online. Tht's what I've done in the past.
 
Forward them to me.

You may see me online but that is not always true - the computer is online.

Thanks,
John
 
Ill also check to see if we can install a hack to report spam pms to.

Will be a task for Monday.

I assume this was a personal spam, not a mass automated spam, which I hope isn't feasible.
 
What constitutes spam?
 
Spam - Unsolicited e-mail. Someone contacting you regarding something unrelated to any posts, and usually trying to sell or offer something.
 
PM spam.

To - DCG - Happy birthday.

To - Fab - I know you are interested in ??? type domains. Did you see ??? domain listed
on DNJ sales report last week?

To - Johnn - I know you like 3 letter .net domains. Do you want to buy ???.net for $ 200. before I post it on DNF?

To - DCG - If you are going to Traffic, there is a special promo code if you want to book a room at the Marriott.

To - ??? - I know you like buying 3 letter .com. There is a rumor that DEF.com might be for sale. Just thought you would want to know.

To - MediaHound - I heard that "so and so company" is looking for a programmer with your experience.

To - Acro - I heard a rumor that ??? registrar is for sale for $ 10K. I thought you might be interested in jumping on this deal.

To - 5 different domainers - I'm selling my complete portfolio for $ 100. The first person that contacts me gets the deal.

If you don't want to be contacted when something is happening behind the scenes, just
let us know.
 
I don't mind to receive PM from regular members here as I mostly buy/sell privately either by email or PM.

I would consider spam PM when someone send the same names to two hundred members.

You never know sometimes you may get a good deal from PM or email. This is just my opinion. Some people are not comfortable to receive PM/Email from even known members.

If I don't like the PM then I simply reply and ask not to send to me again or the names are not what I am looking for.

Life is tough - make it simple.

JMHO

John
