Woke up this morning to find my E-Mail clogged with over 100 entries. Guess one of my friends out there decided to enroll me in some bulletin board broadcast operation out of Australia named OzE Surfer. Registered me as White Burgandy, and several other names with my E-Mail address. It 'AINT funny. Hope it doesn't hit any of your machines. WW

Just block their site -- voila, no more e-mails..... If you would stay off of those wild teen sex sites, you would not get scooped up in the web so much..... [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img]

Jackie and WW -
Jackie, WEBSURFER88 posted a message in the Advertising forum about selling domain names.
This morning in my e-mail I recieved a very nasty email from WEBSURFER88. I will be forwarding a copy of that e-mail to his ISP for action - including all of the expletives.
I know you don't often remove messages from this board or block or delete members. I would request that you do this for WEBSURFER88.
WW - I strongly suspect that you are being bombed by the same guy.
Neither of us said anything nasty to him. We just let him know we were not interested.
Jackie - if you wish I can e-mail you the message he sent me this morning, however I would be embarrassed to do so...... trust me on that one.

MrDutton,
I trust you! I don't need to see his e-mail message. We do not want any of our members subjected to verbal abuse.
Like you, I am normally very relunctant to ban or delete members. Our forums are usually pretty lively and no one likes censorship. With all the going-ons here, I know you're not the sensitive type! This guy's message must have been really raw to get to you.
Sorry you had to put up with this. I've taken care of it. Thanks for letting me know.
Jackie

He's still hittin' me with all kinds of junk. Big brave idiot hiding behind the anononimity of the internet. He'd make a good recruit for Osama. WW
