Why do people forward all those crap emails to people who never, ever reciprocate or respond?

 

Why???

 

Do you read them when you get them?

 

I get annoyed by them clogging my inbox, and I'm growing weary of actually WRITING emails to tell people to take me off their crap-mail list. Do people really think that this is a form of communication? A little "thinking of you!" note?

 

Just curious if I'm the only non-social-non-forwarder out there.

A good friend of mine used to forward me stuff all the time and it was so annoying. I did end up sending her a message asking her please do NOT send me any more jokes.. and such and she stopped. I'm sure she just figured I would enjoy them.. but I did not. I myself never forward stuff unless it's important.

 

It might be a good idea to simply send a message back letting the person know your not interested in receiving "junk" mail so to speak. Good luck.

Oh, I do let people know that I don't like them. I'll let a few slide, but if someone appears to spend all night on their computer forwarding every crap thing they get, I write to say STOP!

 

It just feels like I have to train every new person when they get my addy. I don't get it, since I don't do it, so I was more interested in the WHY do people do this? It must take a lot of time to read all that stuff.

I hate with a passion those e-mails. I just tell everyone not to send me that crap, and they get one other warning and then they get added to my ignored e-mail list.
