Do you appreciate people dropping a lot of forwarded text messages?

Yes, i have friends in college who send me forwarded text messages everyday... if the quote is nice then i'll keep it but it isn't worth it then i just delete it.. i also like graphic text messages and other cool stuffs like MMS pixies...

It would seem that propgress is turning us into cold robot-like people. We do things as though we are programmed to some sort of automatic setting with no thoughts involved much of the time. I receive these texts too from particular people who seem so happy sending the same text to all those people in their phone book. That's what puts me off. Some messages might be quite sweet but when I realise that I am one in a million and not the one in a million to have received it then I am left cold by it. I agree with you that one special message once in while where the sender has composed it especially for me is worth more than all those other forwards.

i don't do text messaging w/anyone. if they want to talk to me they can call me on the phone. i very seldom ever use my cell. i think people have become addicted to them. i know both my sons are.

I do appreciate forwarded messages it's just that it kind of lacks originality from the sender. I would appreciate it more if she would just compose a simple message which i think is a lot more sincere. I appreciate forwarded jokes which makes me laugh sometimes. Chessy or mushy forwarded messages are just too boring!

hi theresaaiza! ... i am guilty of this one! i am an sms addict hehehe.. and i do send a lot of text messages, including forwarded ones! thoughts, quotes, sayings, jokes, mms, graphics messages. but i do not use the SEND to ALL, like forward one kind of message to the whole group. i still scan and check if the receiver will appreciate it. like some friends, i just send serious quotes, some other friends, all jokes - pure jokes only, or for my older friends, quotes from the Bible or words of wisdom to my younger sis and nieces... things like that. they (forwarded messages) should be sorted out too so that the receiver will deem it appropriate and appreciate it! all my friends are aware of this already so they are not pissed off! .... hehehehe... but i don't send like 10 in a day.. i give gaps .. no definites schedule... sometimes i do not send by purpose so they would miss my forwarded and they would text me, "why the silence?" ... so i know they really appreciate it.

not much....i think its a useless owrk...sending forward message twice a day is pardanoable...but flooding with messages just to empty their message balance is totally waste of time

I hate this and delete them and then send them a message letting them know to please stop. I also get text messages like this. From my own sister!

It does not bother me at all at least the person had been thinking about me.

I don't get many text messages through my cell phone, but I do get a lot of forwarded e-mails. There are days that I will get over 100 new messages in my inbox. And like the texts, some are from people that are hardly in good standing with me anyway. Many times I just ignore them and try to clean up my inbox. When I went in to have my baby, I came home and had 768 email messages! That's not even including the junk mail. It drives me crazy, and I too would like the personalized message that actually means something.

Hi there. When I was younger (like, two years ago *lol*), I used to be a serial forwarder of text messages, especially jokes or quotes that I found amusing (because angst-ridden, mushy quotes are so high school ). I guess it was a popular thing to do back then since my friends also did it so I thought nothing of receiving 10, 20, 100 forwarded messages a day. But now, well, I could say I find it mildly annoying, especially if I'm waiting for a really important message or a message from a really important person or both. Don't get me wrong, I still appreciate jokes and other amusing stories from time to time but most of the time, once I receive a quote, I delete it right away without even bothering to read it. I guess it means I did some growing up in this case.

I usually just glance at it and delete it, I don't forward some gabbage to people.

I think so too! I find it annoying at times and distracting. Usually, when I receive forwarded messages, I don't really read through all of it and I delete it almost immediately... It's a waste of space in the inbox and a waste of time.. LOL...

Its depend setuation ,if we are very happy than every massege will accept as a good sms if we waiting for some special sms and we get other than special sms feel very angry.

I apreciate those personal txt msg like. ''hi there how are you'', hello'' and the like.. but whenevr i receive forwarded txt mgss, quotes or even chain messages i will prbbly delete them.

I don't like forwerded messages at all. cause I got the same sms from different people and it annoy me. Why people don't try to be creative?
