I am now getting emails from a member on this site spamming me. Saying pretty much “I saw you bought and enjoyed this file…well check out mine!”
And no its not Flash_cart…this is much worse than any other self promotion I have ever seen on FD. Is this even allowed? I feel like its crossing the line. I have my spam set up pretty tight, and its nice to know that 9 out of 10 emails I get are legitimate emails, and I allow mails from FD because they were always good emails. BUT now people are going to start sending personal messages encouraging buying their files and I feel like things can not get worse. The self promotion just hit an all time low, and its now past the border of annoying.
In case anyone else received a similar email…Im not naming the guys name just yet…but if you did get an email, please do no follow suite, thinking its a great idea, and start doing it yourself.

Hi xdozex I think you are referring to me , I only had the best intentions ,when I sent you that email , I saw you had a problem with the seller…. And I had a similar file in my portfolio. And for you to say it’s “all time low” , well that just not cool…. If you like , you can post my email here for everyone to see what I wrote…. I only tried to help you , not trick you to by my file for 5$... and that 1$ for me …. Take care…..

dSKY, honestly with the spam on this page getting out of hand…more and more every day…and then out of nowhere I get an email…saying:
“Hi I see you really like madness full screen file: http://www.flashden.net/item/fullscreenelasticmenu/4785
Would you please take a look at my “true fullscreen file”: http://www.flashden.net/item/true-full-screen-flash-with-fullscreen-right-click/4878
And tell me what you think
Thanks!”
Thats the same things that Wes said to people that got chucanunka so upset.
To me that doesnt look like you are saying, hey I noticed your having trouble, my file may help…even that would be a little too much to send to an email…unless I actually asked for someone to email me. But what your email does look like is, hey I see you have purchased a similar file…please also buy mine…here it is…thanks!
Now if that wasnt your intentions then I apologize…but thats how I took it and thats how I think many others on this board would take it.

No harm taken
English is not my native language, so I don’t write long email’s, I get right to the point
Again sorry for any inconvenience ,and if you need any help implementing the file in question ,just let me know
