Some asshole sent me the same private message then someone decided to spam my ICQ number with the same bullcrap. They must be slowly going through the list of members doing this to everyone and re-logging on as a new user when one address gets banned.

We need to make the member information area private so this cannot happen. I decided not to reply to this thief as I will not lower myself to their level either.
