...I do
I've even made a spam filter app that helps me out by nabbing tons of it... it's still not enough. Instead of just going through and deleting the egads of spam that's left over like normal when I do a mail dump, I decided to actually unsubscribe from a few of the more notorious services. Here's some of the results:
Here's me unsubsribing through email:

And through a web form:

Post your "funny" or just plain rude unsubscription methods here... we all get pissed off at times, now's a chance to let the world know and get praised for it! hehe =D

Two weeks ago when going to a computer show to pick up a wifi card, they had people outside the door hassling people to sign up for a contest to win prizes. Of course, if you know any better, these contests are only made so they can sell you stuff. The only question it asked you was your name and email address. I quickly noted this would lead to spam.
This hot girl in a red shirt handed me a card, and here is what I put:
TheChick_RedShirt@Niceboobs.net
*edit*

I'm happy, I have a new email adress now and I don't ever get spam.. *ahh*

I am sticking with yahoo, since a year ago they have improved greatly in the interface and spam blocking. I never get spam. Also I have the coolest email address in the world, so I'm sticking with it.

If any of you need a new email address, I can offer you one at pcrpg.org
-
Sweet!
If I ever need another one I'll be sure to ask you
-
I could use a new email. That would be great. I just checked my email the other day and had over 200 useless emails
-
I only get abour 1 spam email per week with my hotmail/msn account...
-
Never unsubscribe... just tells them you're getting the emails. Therefore, they'll send you even more.
-
Bleah Block em

Never unsubscribe... just tells them you're getting the emails. Therefore, they'll send you even more.
Only partially true. If they send it and don't get a failed mail message, you pull up the graphics in the "rich" spam, or reply they know you're getting it. If you unsubscribe they have to BY LAW quit sending it. I normally just block them with my app, but why not unsubscribe AND block them?
-
I block them and notify yahoo that it is spam, even if it isnt. Just another easy way of making it better for all yahoo users.
-
Only problem with that, is they find out you blocked them and send them from a new addy each time...
-
That's why you build a spam filter that blocks domains.
-
Well not everyone is as VB oriented as you..
-
there should be a law against that
-
WTF, I checked my hotmail email yesturday and it was full , it was like 1110 messages, basically all gay spam ones, 1/4 was porn, a half was advertising, and the other 1/4 was "venom70 you won"
my email has venom70 in it if u wondering about that ^
-
Part can I have an email @pcrpg.org?
-
I have one, but the only person that ever emailed me on it is Dirk and that's cause I asked him to cause it looked bare lol. But all my other email addresses get spammed all to hell and it just sux sometimes.
-
Ok.. A new national law..
In order to graduate high school
You must have taken 3 years of a computer language.. 1 which must be VB.
-
^^^ VERY good idea. The population would be only half as stupid.
-
I used to get 50 spams an hour.....
-
I used to get those pop-up "Messenger" error windows with spam in them, until I figured out how to disable the thing
-
3 years!!!!??? uhhhh fu<k no... i find c++... vb.. pearl... ect... boring as $hit ... i guess i just don't get the same thrill out of... programming as u guys
and i hate when a program won't work... and u gotta go back and sift through your coding

It takes a certain kind of person. Not everybody is entertained by looking at 50 pages of text for 8 hours on a Friday night.
