Sometimes I wonder if some members understand the amount of work that goes into 'policing' a forum like this. Not only do we get new members sending out mass e-mails to others (spamming) but we also get those who just come on to cause trouble (sad I know). Once banned we then find that they come back under another name - so the whole process starts again.

So - for the last time - nobody was accused of anything in the email that Scunner sent.

I honestly think this topic and the other similar thread have now been exahusted. I intend to lock them both by the end of today so if anyone wants to add their final thoughts please do it before then.

Why lock it ?
There are another 2,000 + members who have got to have their say yet.

Ok, Dave. I'll leave this one open and lock the other. It's pointless having two threads going that are so similar.

Erm

Er

Unwanted by some, unsolicited only to people who can't even remember becoming a member here.

For the record, the 2 days since the email was sent have been two of the busiest in the history of CBF  :)

I agree - I've had numerous emails from members asking me to explain the spam that Scunner sent out (lol).

It just shows that the saying is true:

"there's no such thing as iffy bad publicity"

Hopefully everyone who was upset by the email has calmed down - now that they understand the reason it was sent out.

It seems to have rid us of Webby as well!

It wasn't bad publicity! It was a general email from a forum that all recipients signed up to, basically saying that idiots will not be tolerated. If members want to be spammed and the site to go to pieces that can be done easier  ;)

Anyway, lots of people who haven't thought to come here for a while emailed to say hello and came back for a read.

Good publicity  :)
