Time to bust me some myths!
Okay, I've avoided writing in the journal for quite a while now, because I wanted to devote it mostly to RP stuff. However, I received a pm that was just too good to pass up.

Names have been changed to protect the non-innocent.

From gaia admins: If somebody by the name *dvorak@yahoo.com* adds you dont accept it. Its a virus. Tell everyone on ur bulletin because if somebody on ur list adds them u get the virus too. Tell everyone on your list not to open anything from angell11, tewwtuler, and sassybitch. Its a hard drive killer and a very horrible virus. If you dont pass this letter to everyone on your buddy list, we will delete your account. We need to find out who is really behind this

Yeeaah... I'm calling bull on this one. If it was really from the admins...

1. They would make an announcement in the forum specifically designed for that purpose, rather than sending it via chain letter.

2. They would simply delete the offending users, rather than deleting everybody who doesn't forward it to all their friends.

3. They would give the message proper spelling and punctuation. "dont accept it"? "Tell everyone on ur bulletin"?

That's three perfectly good reasons that this is nothing more than a rather clumsy hoax.

And by the way, English final coming up, when it's done I'll finish working out the details of the RP.
