I used a sneakemail.com address when I signed up to mmorpg.com. It's the only place I've ever used that particular address. Today I've started receiving spam through that address. Luckily I can just delete the address to stop it. How's that happened? |

I feel your pain! |

Don''t mock me my friend. It''s a condition of mental divergence. |
Happened to me too, I just got my $15 in the mail for the sale, along with a certification for VCR Repair, I got my GED now! Serious though you don't know for sure that it was MMORPG, spammers have their ways. EDIT: Just incase you couldn't tell MMORPG didn't sell my E-Mail adress. |

Why blame mmorpg.com for your own negligence?
Hide your email address in your profile, before you start throwing blame. |

We're not selling addresses, they're finding them via profiles or sending to username@mmorpg.com addresses :( I know it sucks, but there's little we can do. |

Originally posted by arcana666 Just go into your profile under options and look below the entry box for your e-mail address. It doesn't hide it by default, but it's not hard to change. Originally posted by CactusmanX Someone offered me a cup of cold day-old coffee and an only slightly expired Ring DIng for your address, man. Hope you don't mind. Originally posted by Taera Taera, maybe Skywiseknight or one of the others could make it hide the e-mails by default. Won't stop the @mmorpg.com spamming, but it'll cut down a little on the personal spam, espe | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
