Check your email and my post in the pit “This isn’t even friggin funny” folks.

We either have round two starting or some folks getting a late start comforting us poor depressed people.

_sigh_

JohnCorrado-

I realized that I put my work email on my profile inadvertently (big DOH!) instead of my personal email! That is why mine is different now. But, I have just recieved 3 or 4 more emails, still to my work address! UGH!

It wasn’t me! It wasn’t me!!

If you receive any of these emails, please forward to me, including, when possible, header information.

May be actual people like “Sarah,” may be spoofed addresses.

Be cool about it; we’ve had quite a few email spoofings lately (on top of everything else), don’t yell at anybody until you’re absolutely sure they deserve an ass-kicking.

Thanks.

Sorry, LovableOne- didn’t mean to make you think I was accusing you of anything.

BTW- when _did_ you change your profile? If it was before the slew, it might help us figure out when our annoying little ‘Sarah’ decided to pull our addresses.

Tuba- d’ya want the messages individually, or c&p’ed into a single e-mail?

Ut Oh, I maybe in big trouble, I sent them too her one at a time.

Please don’t kill or ban me Tuba, I was trying to do what you asked.

Well, UncleBeer _said_ he wanted them individually- better to trace ISPs and all that- so you probably done good.

I hope Tuba and Uncle appreciate these messages as much as we did.

Damn straight I’m cheered up. I’m fucking cheery as hell, alright? Take your shitting cheeriness and ram it up your cheery little ass, okay? And LEARN TO FREAKING SPELL!

Okay, I’m better now.

…yup, check my post count, I’ve only been here a few weeks and I’m the target of a cheer up campaign! Well at least now I feel like part of the crowd. Don’t know who I could have pissed off so much in such a short time though, I don’t express my opinions in a very strong manner … oh well I hope it gets untangled eventually!

Do you still want me to send my collection?

I’m very certain they are the same as my esteemed colleagues. Let me know.

But, for God’s sake, DON’T E-MAIL ME! 😉

Well now, I am sure I could type up a little something for you Phycat90 🙂  
You just got to ask real nice and quite sulking.  
I just can’t handle women who sulk. It is my Kryptonite I swear. _sigh_

This is exactly why I don’t share my e-mail address with the SDMB - it’s a shame, as I would be delighted to hear from most of you. But I won’t risk compromising my privacy. The only people here that I’ve exchanged private e-mails with are the mods and admins, and if you can’t trust them, who can you trust?

I’ve been surprised by some of the posters targeted by the trolls - as mentioned here, some are newbies who have not yet had a chance to offend anybody, and some are certainly not known as ‘troll-bashers’. Very nonsensical.

I’m sorry this happened to ya’ll - I’ve been threatened and put on any number of shit lists, but so far I’ve not been the victim of any type of skullduggery, so I guess keeping your e-mail addy hidden works.

Ya know, I almost feel left out of this. I always hear people complaining about unsolicited and spam e-mail. It’s surprising to me how little I actually get. I have 3 accounts that I use regularly, besides the one here at work and I can’t remember the last time I got something I’d call unsolicited or spam.

The gods must love me.
