I received this message in my email box this morning.

Hi;

My web site is up for Cool Site of the Week on www.lugnet.com
<http://www.lugnet.com> , and I am hoping I can have your vote!

I have snipped the sender's email, to protect their privacy.

Usually I just forgive the occasional random emails about LEGO that I
occasionally receive from people I have bought from before, but this is an
unsolicited invasion of my private email box, IMO. I don't know this person,
and I have never dealt with them in any kind of transaction.

Can we let people know NOT spam for votes when they get nominated? Perhaps
some kind of nomination email or something. I really hate to have to even
ask for this sort of thing... I would have thought it would be self-evident.

If I could leave a negative vote, I would. :^P

(...) yah, I got the same exact mail, and also got it on one of the lego club mailing lists I read - with the exact same message id - massive spamming, imo... I think that site should be removed from the nomination. but that's just me :) (23 years ago, 8-May-01, to lugnet.admin.general)
