The Gmail account

I see no topics regarding this, so I just thought I'd post about it.

The g m a i l.c o m account is used for backing up important files such as sprites or relaying some messages to the community if you are unable to access your account and have tried everything (I just made that up, don't kill me)

username: chexquest
password: PM an admin or moderator.

Someon pin this, its a really nice thing to have if you dont have anything else.

what if someone get the password, and uses it to go to spam sites and stuff? Next thing we know, chexquest at gmail dot com will have persianwife.com ads...

That's why I said e-mail an admin, if they're admins they have enough intelligence to tell who's an idiot and who's not.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. For all you know, I or AtarianGamer could be e-mail spammers. And yet, the administrators would never know until it was too late. (I'm NOT a spammer - I am just using this as an example)

AFAIK, its not used anymore...the last person to even ask about it was me on the old boards...

The last activity there that isn't spam activity seems to be on Mon, Nov 12, 2007 at 11:30 AM. Everything there that's of value has been archived on my website, and as far as sharing stuff goes, people either use standard email or public file sharers. The Gmail account has become a thing of the past. Still, it's there, so I'll pin this for now. Also, anonymous, it would probably be best to throw a wrench or two in that address so we don't attract any more spammers than there already are.

I also took the liberty of clearing out the spam folder, there were about 750 messages there.

O_O The last time I looked this morning, it was closer to 7.

I did that yesterday, lol.

Manny Cav · January 12, 2009, 12:48:07 PM

You must have cleared it out just before I slipped in.

Wussup with the (nospam) thing? Just for kicks?

Anonymous (ChexGuy331) · January 13, 2009, 06:30:57 PM

To prevent spam.

ChexCommander · January 14, 2009, 11:19:41 PM

Wait, so does it really work? Do spammers not send things to something with a (nospam) tag because they don't know about it, or what?
