No clue. Have not seen this before. RCU has changed hands, so some things may change. Who knows.

At the bottom of each of your posts is that little Email Icon. You can click on that to send that person an email without knowing (or getting) their email address - the email is sent to you through RCU and from RCU. If you decide to reply to te person, you will reply directly to THEIR email address and then they will have yours. It's a security feature to keep you email address hidden from the public.

But a spammer can come in here and send many emails through this system. They do not do it often because they have to do one at a time instead of sending out one email to thousands of people in one shot.

That ,(SOB), is Persistent if anything !!

Just got more E-mails inviting me to his web-sight.

I would normally just redirect that sender to Spam
but that's not an option since i Want notifications from rcu!!

We have filters in place to limit the amount of email or private messages any one person can send out in a given time period, but that doesn't stop people from trying. Regardless, this guy has been banned.

Nathan,
You might want to check out; www rcuniverse co
This guy Jason@****** (the owner) started that website to catch as he called them "Dumb Ass Retards" that type rcuniverses web address wrong so he can profit off of them with his ads!
I dont know if you can do anything about it or not but this guy is really, really bad news. You may also want to read this post @ RCTech http://www.rctech.net/forum/8940856-post18.html
He has really created a **** storm for himself and a lot of his so called buddies or members. If you contact rush at rc-gods.com he will be able to tell you more.
