Though I do see quite alot of interesting things here. Are you from Maine. Its a great place. I did a windjammer cruise one summer up the coast and just recently, revisited. Its heaven. The problem that I really had with adholes is that within three days three people confessed that they were not who they said they were. And as I went along alot more people turned out to be fake also. So really how could one really communicate. You can't. You did the right thing. You aren't the only one writing about them. Its all over the net and of course my email is full of people who have written me about them. I really don't get it. Then again I never dared venture in the AdWorld. My mom always said they were crooks and liars. cool. Though I do see quite alot of interesting things here.

You say there's a "few" posts on my blog where I accuse places of spamming me. There are actually 2 relevant posts where I complain about being spammed out of about 100 or so. Both of those posts concern Adholes, and as for your comemnt that you're "not sure" why I'm accusing them of spamming me, all I can say is...DID YOU READ MY POSTS? If you did, and you still think Adholes' behavior here is appropriate and mine is not, please tell me so. Please, to all those coming here searching for Adholes, read the posts before you comment. Jennifer B,

There's a few posts on your blog where you accuse various sites of spamming you. I'm a member of Adholes, and they very rarely send emails. When they do they're not commercial and there is a link at the bottom to the commonly used MailMan system where you can easily get off the list. So not sure why you're accusing them of spamming, I'm a member of Talent Zoo and MediaPost and they send me several emails per day. You seem to be overly obsessed with spam.

At least they told you how to delete yourself. I named myself to "nobody" in order to get deleted and they sent me a you have been kicked out, your posts are stupid and ridiculous, beat it, get a life, buh-bye. Anyway you are right, tons of people have left the site for worse reasons than you have. Too bad imagine what one could constructively do with that resource. Really too bad. I think you got out of the whole matter rather nicely. So what's the trendiest thing going on at your website these days? Why did you get on adholes anyway?
