im curious as to wat u guys think of servers that send Emails to RO players trying to get em to play on there server~
i kinda think there annoying but eh i rarely get emails aside from facebook spam and things like that so they dun bother me that much

so watcha think of servers that do it?

I think it's one way of advertising that will probably attract some pepole, but well I find it mildly annoying and  most likley would never use something like that myself, because when ti comes down to it, it's just another spam mail and spam never looks good.

I would shun the server.
Spamming someone's inbox is one reason why I would not join a server.
If I do not play a server, or work for it, I want nothing to do with it.

ironically the whole reason i made this topic was cause *****RO spammed me with 50 yes 50 im not even kidding 50 emails XD

Establish a new rules???

Okay, then let users post negative reviews for the server for spamming their inbox ???

We get these alot on LRO. -_- Good thing people report them to us but its still annoying.

Yeah, someone from SerenityRO emailed me about a different server o.o
I told him not to email me with that stuff.

I've only sent one email out to people on my forums, because many of them didn't know that our server is finished Lol.

Now how about emailing users on another server by getting email lists from a user or looking at profiles while not logged in on RMS?
That is going on on AnthemRO, and I have talked to the person who is doing it, and the staff of the server, as well as the person who that emailer claimed gave him the email list.

In my own opinion, emailing people about your server is spam.

  • The email is not asked for.
  • The email is sent without the consent of the individual(s) that are emailed.
  • The email was not welcome.
  • And the email is an annoying message.
