How do you all respond to chain mails (emails/ messages)? Some mails says if you do not forward to xx number of people you will get a really bad luck. So, did you forward it to your fellow friends? or you just ignore it?

i can't understand why some people do believed in this trash.what power does the letter has to curse you or see your future? you don't depend your life nor your future to the chain letter.your life is what you want it to be.what i hate most is when that chain letter is trying to use the name of God saying that if you don't send this, God will punish you...Grrrr, that's real stupid!

i still read these chain mails but i don't forward them because i believe in luck or something. if i think the mail is nice, i'd forward it to selected friends. for those that are not interesting, i immediately delete from my inbox.

Hey my friend, LUCK is in your hand. I believe in what goes around, comes around. And i believe in God, not LUCK. =) So, why did you believe in LUCK? Mind to share? =)

i don't believe in luck. i did not forward the message because of the note that you get to be lucky or have bad luck. I, too believe in God and not on luck. about the chain mails, i just read the contents, and not focus on the note of luck, etc. if the content is nice, i'd forward them to friends.

=) Same. Sometimes there are lots of nice and cute picture in it, right? Some even attach a meaningful story too. I love that. But never the chain thing.

I hate when I get that stupid stuff, because by getting that mail you know that a lot of people believe it, which is worse. I don't send that out because it will just make me look gullible haha. I just get it and ignore it if I hadn't immediately deleted it. I'm glad I don't get that kind of stuff anymore, or it is a very rare occurrence. How about you? What do you do when you get that kind of mail?

Hi there,
For me, i will take a look at these mails, if there is any good things or wordings in it, i will forward it out to my friends with the condition i will delete the parts which ask me to forward to xx numbers of friends to gain the luck. =)

I have an excellent way to deal with it. I don't respond to them. It is rare that I would even open one to read let alone respond to it.
I don't understand why anyone would even bother to send that crap.

way back when i was still young i used to believe that chain mails etch. are badluck if you dont send them to others, but now i definitely ignore it because it has no logic why it will cause you bad luck.

Yea, i agree with you too. How can we get bad luck by not forwarding an email? Voodoo involved in emails? And how we gain good luck if we forward?
By the way, i don't believe in luck either! Lol...

I don't like chain mails, I usually make them as spam. It makes people believe that there would really be bad luck for them. What I hate most is that it involves your loved ones like "one of your relatives would die if you don't re-post this in 10 minutes". They;re not God to predict the future. :)

Yea! I hate those which sounds more like "cursing" to your loved one or family. I really hate it. There's no reason why all these things should involve with the cursing. It is just some forward mails.

I will just ignore... if the chain mail really will bring bad luck, y u sent to ur friend? friend mean a person who can share everything with u, will with u when u r in trouble, will hold ur hand when u r down... so, if the chain mail really bring bad luck, y u still 1 2 sent 2 ur friend to give them the bad luck? if really bad, i will be the last person who receive the mail n the last person who wil be bad luck... in chinesse, there is a phrase means " if you dun 1, dun pass to other people".. this is my opinion oli... i not sure i'm rite or wrong... but tis is wat i will do when i received chain mail....
