Tess, do you know how to find out send me the message? The player said either like someone would die, I nearly believed in that. I only got it yesterday midnight, I left it in my mail box till this morning. But deleted. I would be happy if you could stop players from sending this.

I got two in the last 48 hours, but I didn't send them on because I'm not stupid enough to, I just simply reported.

Same, they said it was going on ever since 1864, it is about your crush thing right?

That's hilarious, and remind me what kind of computer was around back then?

Clearly they used an Abacus to spell out the message in binary.

I hope none of the younger plays received any of the silly ones that threaten you with death or anything awful like that. I remember reading one of those years ago and felt sorry for any smaller children it passed through the hands of because it probably scared them into forwarding the spam to people.

So glad there's an official rule against it now!
I've gotten two of those in the time span of two days. o_o The users whom I received it from seemed to be scared younger players and as Solloby said, I rather feel sorry for them.

/raises hand/ I am the one who sent a report on someone sending me chain mail. I hope I am who inspired you to make this Tess. I can't believe someone sent me chain mail, I just.. I just.. I can't tell you how much it hurt me to check my PMs and see a message labeled Chain Mail, because the person understood it was against the rules, and they just sent it to me. It made no sense.

EDIT: and seriously, it makes me want to just tell the user that they're stupid for thinking that I will believe anything they say about chain mail. But I don't. I shouldn't. It would be rude. Honestly, these stories are annoying. Especially with the fact that the older users know it will be passed on more of it is more scary. They know to send it to the younger users too, because the younger users don't understand that it's fake. They get scared of the stories. It is s sad that those users have to fern trouble because of people picking on them and scaring them.

Umm.. If I consider I said I am still a kid and receive one. They said my family members would die the next day and then it be me. I kind of creeped out and could hardly sleep

And then the older people they most likely get scared into sending it to probably get mad at them :(
