What an original idea, you didnt rip that idea from http://s10.zetaboards.com/SAC06/index/ did you? Seeing as that forum has done it for over a year :roll:

Andy - please do not misunderstand me :o

I am not "ripping ideas", I am just borrowing it from another wonderful forum which I am proud to be a member of - ACCF :mrgreen:

I believe you too as an honourable collector would like to prevent these celebrities' emails being spammed by people who just want a quick autograph, and since the ACCF has such an effective idea to do so, then maybe fanmail should put it in place too :)

However, if this is a copyrighted idea and/or it is illegal for fanmail to use it, then please notify me and I will take back the idea {thumb2}

Thankyou.

Great Idea {thumb2} !
x hayley x wrote: Good point, but how could they possibly decide who can have access to it? Even people who have been members for a long time still request autographs just for the sake of it, so they couldn't exactly go by the date they joined or anything.
I suppose they could look at past successes of members and see how many were email compared to TTM, but that would take forever checking every single members history!

Yep; that's what I'm thinking about too - anyone who would like to request for access can contact a GM/AE/Mod (admin can decide this) who will run a background check on that member, and decide if they should be granted access to that forum. However, minimum requirements should be setted u; for example, any one who requests access to the email forum must have at lease 300 constructive posts and must have been a member on this forum for 6 months.

Ive seen one idiot actually admit he had no idea who the celeb was. I dont mean not knowing his name, I mean not knowing what he was famous for. People like this annoy me (to put it lightly)

I think you should be able to post them, just not be entered in the $10 gift certificate. I collect because I want to, not to sell.

Hello,
I totally agree.To tell you the truth I only wrote my top 10 people.Most people write celebs when others post their feedback and the photo was sent by the celeb or it was a fast success.It's for their autograph collection to reach high :roll: .That is not nice.. :mad:

I know this is old but I will bump it anyway!

What about me?

I am collecting for charity - I am on a shoe string budget of about £18 for over 350 celebs - I need e-mail!

So far the majority of positive responses have been by e-mail!

I really see your point! - If you really are a fan just spend £1/$1.50 (I wish $2 - thats why Im fundraising due to the collapse of the £)

Thankss,

Cal
