Crappy PM

Postby Totally Mental » Feb 20th, '09, 12:36



I am sure everyone here has just received this PM....


Hi,

We have recently launched a new magic community, the link is {link removed - but it doesn't even work} and we would all be very greatful if you would be so kind as to sign up take a look around, and even make a few post if you have the time. The site has its own video sharing area and a VIP section for its valued members. Also we would be so greatful for any kind of feedback you could give us. Thank you for your time.

Hope to see you soon

ps there is an amazing competition on at the moment where you can win upto 6 magic dvds of your choice!!!!

---------------------------------------------

Now sometimes I like to take a look at the sites proposed just to see how rubbish they actually are - buit this guy has taken the time and effort to compose an email, send it to everyone, and include a link that doesn't work......

iamblane - change your username to iamstupid - it will suit you better!

Should I be offended that I wasn't chosen as worthy to be spammed? Or grateful?

I'm wondering the same :shock: .

QUESTION:
If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??

I hope to go next year, as I've never been before. It's every February, right?

Very jealous of all those who have made the trip to Blackpool this year. I'll hopefully be joining them next year!



In other news, I have now also received the spam PM. Looks like my prayers have been answered!

If you think that's bad, user nikegem has just joined. Prepare to receive a lot of crappy trainer postings.
