Actually, I like it when people are emailing others about my site. I LOVE it. But it seems that the people who owns the webspace frowns on that, even if it was out of my control. People were emailing others, it got a mention in a newspaper column (complete with web addresses), and I assume that it grew to the point where total strangers were emailing other total strangers. Someone, or maybe more than one person complained...goodbye website.
I'm going to build a new one somewhere else.
I'm surprised that you didn't get chided on the goings on, if they really are as reported in your other thread and you aren't making part or all of this up. The US government would take a dim view of "scam the scammers" once things of value, and not just email banter, becomes involved.
I loved that site, it was a classic!
