Originally posted by FMFThey have passed a law recently in Britain that if you receive unsolicited messages
Well, as long your "Strokes and Pokes" don't arrive by PM, they're fine by me. 😵
by snail mail or electronic mail either to your computer or your phone
then you can sue the sender and they receive a fine if the standards office
deem that they sent to you without your permission.
Everything that Britain does Ireland generally follows suit.
The data protection act here has recently been beefed up.
Originally posted by apathistNo one has suggested that they are "harmful". You've perhaps got the wrong end of the stick. As I have said, I had no complaint about the content of his PMs. I was simply curious as to whether polite requests for him to desist had or hadn't worked for other posters. It turns out that several people have been forced to use the ignore feature, although I have not.
Re the OP. His PMs aren't harmful. There's a handful of people here who need another hobby. Wouldn't they prefer a nice game of chess?

then you'll know intimately,
the thrust of his intent...
tell us all about them, and how you know...
Originally posted by rookie54If I had to guess, and taking into consideration his forum persona, I would say that his intent in ignoring the polite request and sending more PMs anyway was him flexing a little bit of of his vanity mixed in with some passive aggression on his part (hence the pouting in the meantime). But he has desisted now, so it's moot really. Plenty of people much worse than him out there in cyberspace.

Yes, but did you say pretty please with a cherry on top?
