The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
On average, over about half an hour of being online, I gain about 10 new messages. Why? Because my e-mail is taken from things like memberships, guides which I make, even off these forums and added to these stupid con lists. I don't want a free credit card, no fuss credit approval, liposuction, free porn, pictures of Britney Spears or animal sex. My e-mail address is for me, not for ads. If I want to see advertisements, I turn on the TV where, at least, the ads are decent.
Example:

Apparently, according to this message, I've subscribed to a chain-mail which involves people boning snakes, horses and exotic animals. Nice.
Whilst I did send an extremely offensive e-mail back to them, I find it somewhat annoying that, no matter how much I complain to them, I keep getting upwards of 50 junk e-mails a day!
So my advice to you, apart from waking up after reading what isn't fun, or interesting, is to keep confidential. Don't sign up to anything with your proper e-mail address, unless you actually want all these e-mails.
This was intended as a moan.

Problem is, each junk mail sent out is a different address. Thats why they're always abstract things like [email protected] - not true addresses at all
it bugs me too!
all that i do though is block the sender and whenever it tries to send me one again it cant hehehe.

But they do start to build up after a while.
