My sister was pretty bad especially with those MS forwarding emails to get $268 per forward for those who use MS Windows... After a few years, I asked her how much she's got from MS. :roll:

(GEN, SS x3, DC x3)*(PCE-Duo)*(Xbox:500GB)*(NGCDZ, NGPC)*(PS1, PStwo, PS3:160GB, PSP.3K)

A lot of my friends were like this, so I just filtered anything with FW: from certain contacts straight to deleted emails. Any genuine emails wouldn't be forwarded messages anyway (in my case at least).

I don't understand people getting upset over being asked to stop sending spam. Seems kind of trivial really.

My friend started doing that once so I gathered up 2 months worth of spam mail (as in the physical kind) went around to his house when nobody was in and started posting it through his letter box. I had amassed quite a pile of crap as well. I don't know if they could get in the door or not but that shit was piled high behind the door when I had finished!

He came to me and was all "some fucking dick head posted shit loads of crap through my letter box, did they do the same to you?" I just replied "Yes, you did, you fucking douche, stop sending me 10 fwds a fucking day."

Naturally he was pretty pissed but saw the funny side eventually. He was really pissed off with me for weeks.
