Sorry for the vanity, but lately I've been getting put on ping lists that I never asked to be on. I was wondering if this has happened to any other FReepers. Anybody else having this problem?

If you don't want to be on a ping list and they won't take you off, hit abuse the next time you're pinged and explain the situation.

Oh, I've done that, and then received a ration of sh!t from the pinger for "insulting" them. It kinda turns into spam, IMO.

If they keep harassing you, keep hitting abuse on them. They're the ones that'll get suspended or banned for spamming, not you.

Did you know that adding keywords is not as anonymous as some people think?

Just added one, I couldn't help it.

A Mod wanted to clear the keywords list.

Too many keywords, no doubt. The Mods probably moved it to chat to get rid of the words, then back so it could be commented on.

I am on some sort of ping list for inane Vanities.

Can't seem to get off, either.
