I have recieved several unwanted emails and pm's from people that I don't know, respect, or even give a flying fark about, but it comes with territory. If you post anything about anything long enough you will run afoul of a jerk or the jerks minions.
Some simple rules to remember..
Email and PM's are for ever.. they reside somewhere and can come back to haunt you. Take this in the larger context and so does membership in any board forum has it risks. If you don't want it to be thrown back at you sometime down the line, don't pitch it in the first place.
If and I use the term if very strongly, you are being harassed or believe that you are, by a person whom you feel is either out to harm you or your reputation, keep of copy of all PM's emails, etc, send the jerk a "kiss off letter" either by electronic mail or by snail mail. Contact your ISP and email provider and have them trap the offending emails for security reasons. If it is a private board, stop using that board.
One very interesting note to make here, is that most of you ( I can't remember if I did or not) gave most board administrators the right to email you at your personal email address, you checked the box upon registration allowing this..
Think of it as giving a vampire free rein to come to your house anytime he or she wants to...
Now back to the drama....
