Who's gotten random Private messages telling you to sign up for a site?
I've gotten 2 just today.
They're very annoying and they are obviously spam.
These people are just writing out their plee for referrals and sending them to whoever is online.
I go idle on the site sometimes, only to come back to a crap load of nonsense about me signing up for freeipods.com. Yea right.
some users off the top of my head are...
[bedf2592848]sam[/bedf2592848]
[bedf2592848]Ali[/bedf2592848]
And plently others mixed in with my other PM's
They're also including their referral links, which is just dodging the forum rules. If the new people that come here get one of these private messages, they'll sign up not knowing how everything works.
Anyways, can this be dealt with?

It is against the rules to send unsolicitated pms for trades it is also against the rules to include your ref link in a pm with out it being requested...at least it used to be against the rules dont really feel like checking

Abaweet69, I was PMing the person whose thread you replied to. It was a simple mix up. I just hit the wrong persons PM. I sent you another PM, right after, explaining and apologizing. I didn't know it was such a big problem ? Again, sorry.

Exclude Peinecone, I forgot about his follow up PM
Anyways, I'll contact the mods since they are breaking the rules
