Hotmail & Chainletters

There must be a lot of sad little Hotmail users out there who not only believe that Hotmail would condone a chainletter. Okay, to any hotmail users:
  1. Hotmail doesn't send/start chainletters (anything which has a subject beginning with "FWD:" has not come from Hotmail.)
  2. Hotmail is free unless you actually sign-up for the premium option. You will not get charged on the first of any month.
  3. If Hotmail was getting overcrowded they'd take means against it, which wouldn't include sending a chainletter to check the status of an account. If you have forgotten about when you first signed up Hotmail can set an account to automatically close-down due to inactivity, this is more logical then going through each account checking whether they forwarded on a chainletter.

Use some sense people! Stop clogging up inboxes with bullshit chainletters & just delete them! Better yet, send an e-mail to the person who sent the bullshit to you & tell them to forehead slap themselves because they are silly, naive people who give too much credit to the bullshit some people write.

It makes you wonder just who starts the chainletters, probably to laugh at the stupidity of the people who actually believe them & to see how long it takes to come back to them & how many people actually send it on. So please, stop humouring these people, it's a waste of everyones time.
