This site misusing members email addresses?

Post by xroyal »

Ever since I joined this forum my junk email and pop-up ads have increased dramatically! Anyone else note this trend? Someone is trying to profit overly at our expense, and I don't appreciate it! It's a pain! <p></p><i></i>

I haven't had any problem with spam since signing up here last month. <p>---------------------<br>Does the noise in my head bother you?<br><a href="http://www.anandtech.com/mysystemrig.html?id=2249">My Rigs</a><br><a href="http://stats.distributed.net/rc5-64/psu ... 27482">RC5 Stats</a></p><i></i>

We have not authorized distribution of any email addresses

And we will continue to not release email addresses to anyone for any reason. Except for the occasional site news mass emailing (like the 256 MB ram giveaway we sent yesterday, our first email sent from this forum) we have no plans to send emails to members on a regular basis, and will NOT distribute email addresses.<br><br>I will look into this further however to ensure that EZBoard is not sending emails without member consent. Kindly post any instances here so that we may determine if there is a problem. <p></p><i></i>

I've received no SPAM since signing up. I can't remember, but were there check box options for receiving e-mails from ezboard and/or it's affiliates in the registration screens? Perhaps you left something checked? <p></p><i></i>
