Pm advertising

I'm sick and tired of people advertising websites, RPs, and general crap through PMs. General is ok, though some I don't particularly agree with. For example, someone sent me a link to another forum( which by the way, I immediately deleted). Later( say, two months) people started sending me invites for RPs. I have one thing to say.
STOP IT. I know others get them, but I know that I personally am getting tired of having my box filled often with useless things. I can easily say that it is only the newer people, as the only RP related PMs I get are from RPs that I have joined. This may be a useless rant to some, but it certainly saves me time from responding to every other PM I get with a "scowl and a shout".

I have been getting them too. but I either ignore them or just politely decline.
no need to get your knickers in a twist over it.

Well personaly Chalgrish, I apologize. I did not know that people were sending PMs to you almost all the time about RPs. I only sent that message because I thought that you would add something to the RP and I did not want the RP that Talus and Mia made die before it started. I apologize again even more because I did not know that inviting you to an RP by PM was a nusence to you. Never again will I invite you to an RP. To be on the safe side, never again will I send you a PM.

Rest assured, I will not make the same mistake twice.

yay for the twit who made me start up about this again. I LOOK AT ALL OOC's. If I WANT to join your RP, I'll ask to. If I don't, I won't send anything.

Ok guys, really, if you've been asked to stop, you need to knock it off. We aren't here to baby-sit each other. If you're needing people to join an RP and are that much in want, put a sticky in the OOC or something. Putting requests into people's inboxes when they've expressly asked that you don't gets no one anywhere and just creates frustration among some board members.

If you've been asked not to advertise, etc, don't. Consider the person who asked to be left alone a board "do not call list" member.

Thanks^^

Did you call me a twit? I really hope that you didnt because A) calling someone a twit is really ... not so smart and B) in my post, I was statng that I understood your point to the fullest extent and you called me a twit for that? You know what, Im going to give you a benifit of the dought and say that you didnt call me a twit and that I was jumping to a conclusion.
