leaving this forum
I was gone for about 6 weeks and in that time, I have received next to zero junk mail. I visited this site a half dozen times since I've been back and guess what.
The junk mail started again, so as an experiment, I will leave again for an extended time to see if my junk mail drops off again. If it does, that proves to me that this site is mined (either by member or a third party)for addresses.
Anyone else find this happening?

I haven't noticed anything like that. (Knocks on wood)
I run Mozilla Firefox with a number of extensions that block pretty much ALL adware and assorted crap that you find on sites on the intarweb.
Never post your e-mail address online in a public forum. Not that you didn't already know that already. Try taking it out of your profile, if it's there.
I'm pretty sure that google.com datamines the chit out of site that they're linked into.

my junk mail also goes to the junk file automatically, but when I get 8-10 penile lengthening, prescription drug deals, etc., per day, that's a bit much. They are still finding their way to my computer and I don't need that crap.
Also, my sign-up address is a hotmail account. The junk comes to my regular mailbox, not hotmail.
And I also use Mozilla.
What next??

OK, boys and girls.
It has been great chatting with you, and it is a great site, but the experiment starts now. I will be back to check on things now and again, but I won't sign in.
Take care, drive safe and love your neighbours.:santa:
