In the body of the email you should find an UNSUBSCRIBE tab. Click on it and follow the directions.

As I POSTED above, the Admins TAKE care of this stuff. I'm an unpaid VOLUNTEER moderator. I've informed you WITH what to do. Do it OR not. Your choice.

IF we have opted NOT to opt in, WHY do we have to opt out when the email arrives? Do you not see how illogical it is to have people who have chosen not to opt in to have to opt out? And why is it only just now happening?

Advertising through the web site is one thing, sending SPAM to members is another. Especially when members have already chosen not to opt in, in the first place.

I do SEE how illogical it is to continue badgering me ABOUT it when you can so easily STOP the situation.

The situation defies logic, as we have NOT opted in via the web site, but still have to opt out via the SPAM that arives in our inboxes. Your bosses need to change that.

At the bottom of each PAGE is a Contact Us tab. Feel free to click ON that, follow the prompts, and let them KNOW your feelings. Again, THE choice is yours.
