Man I love annoying chain letters, specially the even better variety of
chain letters, the chain warming.

Just be thankful that AWI hasn't gotten the bright idea to allow mass
telegramming yet, otherwise you'd be seeing a *lot* more of this kind of
garbage in AW. :P

Just FORCEFULLY (i.e. with offense) respond to each one so the idiots telegramming you hoepfully get a clue and don't do it again.

That's what I do when I get a chain anything from anyone. If they are a
good friend i give them a warning, and say if I ever get anything chain
mail like from them, they are on my ignore list. If it's someone I don't
really know, I just ignore em after a nasty msg.

Hi everyone:

[View Quote] Umm....Goober, don't look now but, dare I say, but I *think* you JUST GAVE

Hi everyone:

[View Quote] However though Baro, look at it this way....

By responding to the telegram AT ALL, you're accomplishing what the SPAMMER
set out to do in the first place.

Which is why I just simply delete the gram. If they send it to me AGAIN,
their name is MUD and therefore goes into the IGNORE section.... :-)
