How much do you hate these? i've even had a friend get very mad at me once until i told her i wouldnt send her any more even when it says send to a certain amount of people anyway, i know i shouldnt be superstious but sometimes we have such bad luck we cant help it. these days most of my friends know that if i feel i really have to forward it, i add to the subject line "chain mail!" i think this should be done by everyone but my friends dont seem to do it for me why i dont know. are you afraid not to forward these pesky things?

bunnybon, I have always hated chain-emails but have been sucked into them like you for various reasons. I'm not afraid to delete them, it's just that like you our luck has been bad luck financially for over a year and things don't seem to get any better. I think we get so overwhelmed with our own frustrations that we think, well what can it hurt? It won't hurt anyone it will just anger them. This in itself is reason enough to delete them. The one I really hate to get are the Angel ones and the prayer ones because they lay a guilt trip on people. Well, if we need any kind of help. God will provide, even if it's not right when we need it. So from now on, I'm just going to delete. I might even request that my friends and families quit sending them. We have to be strong bunny!! leenie

Thanks for thr best response. If they don't mark it chain letter, you can always delete after you open it. leenie

Well, I don't hate them, but I just don't like them. I'll just ignore those messages asking me to send the email to x number of people, or I'll get bad luck or something. If the contents are good, then I'll remove the these messages and forward them to my friend. Otherwise, I'll just delete them. Well, as I don't believe in it, so I'm not afraid by not forwarding it. ^_^

well, thats pretty much what i do any more. but as bad as my luck is i usually chastis them and tell them send me no more without chain mail in the subject line so i wont open it.

As for me, no I don't forward chain letters unless it's something religious something that spreads good news. I'm really not a superstitious person. I don't believe that bad things could happen if you don't forward it. Whether you do it or not, we are in control of our lives.

Hi bunnybon7, That is just rubbish, I would ignore all those chain-mails, they used to have chain letters before computers were invented and I have always riped them up throw them away just ignore it and delete it nothing bad will happen to you it just somebody's words that is all. Tamara

I don't really hate all the chain mail I receive. Sometimes, some of the mail that is sent to me is really funny except for the part in the end that says that if you pass it on, you will have happiness for the rest of your life or something like that. I really hate chain mails that have scary pictures attached to it. I don't really forward chain mails that I get. But if ever I did, I would probably add "chain mail" to the subject line just like you.

THese chain emails are soo stupid. I dont actually know why are people doing this. they just add a stupid picture or some text and at the end they write if you dont send it to 15 people in 5 min something bad will happen to you. This is ridiculous. Can anyone tell me ehy do people create such emails. I mean are they earning by that or just a way of making fun

well i do get a lot of chain mails from my friends stating forward to so many people and all that crap. well personally i do not believe in such things. i mean how can just forwarding some email having gods image in it help you in your luck. you believe in god thats a good thing, what matters is that you believe, and you believe deeply. but chain mails, they are crap, except for the ones stating that some person needs some help and all. except for those mails i dont forward any, i delete the other ones and i do find them pesky and im not afraid of not forwarding them.
