    Thats the thing i dont understand.
    Its not in my profile and I really cant remember posting it, I have my silly moments but it dosent sound likely. (I could be wrong, my memory sux).

    But as I said, the only place i have even mentioned crutches is here, i aint even mentioned it to anyone in real life yet.

    I emailed him and he responded saying it was not spam (seems like a template mail to me, with the word crutches pasted in, and he said he had read my post here and was just sending me somwhere else to advertise, thought i was SELLLING?,..... besides, its HIS email addy relating to HIS website, and is unsolicited, spam in the rest of the worlds book if not his own imho?

    A quick search shows three posts with your e-mail address in them. Mightn't be a good idea if you don't want to get spammed. If there's anything reasonable we can do to stop people using the boards for spam purposes, we will, but there isn't a lot we can do about this sort of thing I'm afraid.
