There was some guys that received an email recently, a commercial solicitation that was addressed to "Texasflats.net members", I want everyone to know that it didn't come from me, nor did I have anything to do with it, and would never approve of it.
The only reasonable explanation I can come up with is if you haven't set your email to be hidden, then the public (other registered members) can see it.
If you don't want to receive emails like the one mentioned... In your profile you will see a link to "Account Related Settings", click that and select the checkbox to hide your email address from the public and click save.
For the person that sent it, if you want to sell your products here, then pony up like the other legitimate sponsors of this site.
I'll be contacting the person featured in the product.

You can see it, but other members cant, they can still PM you, just not see your email address. If anyone tries to sell you something commercially in a PM please let me know.

01qq is fixing to hit us with some Casino offers. Why are we getting so many junk spammers all of a sudden?

I'm trying to find out, I don't want to ban entire countries because we have members abroad, but I'm running out of options.
