80% of all the e-mail I get comes from people on this board (Yes, I need a life ) and there is a dozen forwarded text jokes in my mail everyday, I dont open them, I dont read them, I delete them as soon as I see "FW".
Please take me off your mass mailling, Thank you for thinking of me but I hate text jokes and I dont like my addy being circulated to folks I dont know.
Thank you
.................................jonny

I know exactly what you are talking about Jonny. I usually send back a message that I actually keep in my mailbox that was fwded 7 times before it got to me....when they get to the last one, I just type a message that says, "wasn't that annoying?"
Also that is a method "spammers" use to get emaill addy's.
So, in conclusion, please nobody ,mass email me FWD materials either.
Thank you
Barry

I get the same thing here but mostly I get inane jokes and cartoons from old friends. So far I open 90% of the stuff but I groan when I see four from the same goof I've known for 25 years.
What I don't do is forward......anything. I've told them that I'm a black hole for them. What I have done is copy and paste in parts of jokes I know someonewill like but...forward? Never.

We agree on something. I have never forwarded anything and I never will. I don't read them either.

The subject matter has to be pretty damned compelling for me to forward something. Mostly crap I get from my mom trying to convert my political opinions. Telling her outright to knock it off has worked so does anyone have any suggestions to make her quit?
