Don't worry, you're OK, Godric. Call it nasty if you like but if spam and outright lies were to spread without control, the forum would be simply be a mess of yuck and confusion.

Yes, you witnessed a banning and you should be careful with your email address and personal details online, its surprising what people can find out from them. At the very least people can harvest emails from forums and send viruses and such to them. There is a thread about protecting your email address somewhere on here.

My computer has Linux and thus I belive is imune to most viruses because they were formed on Windows.

Its not just viruses, its the whole never trust people on the internet thing, if you are truly 13 as you said in the welcome area I'd strongly advice against leaving your email address public anywhere.

If nothing else, thwe amount of email spam you will get after a while will be annoying.

Since this user was banned this topic should be locked and moved to the furnaces...to burn forever.
