I keep getting this person who wants me to email them with information already freely available on this website.
I have told him that I have no intention of emailing a total stranger from my personal email address, but they keep sending me this demand.
from bola to LostintheFog1999
Can you tell me how to block this persistent messager?
Lost: I think that there is a way to do that. I don't know what e-mail program you use, but there should be a category at the top that says something like "junk mail." Next time that you receive a message from this individual, click on it, and "tell" you system to just put any future messages from that person into your "junk mail" folder. I think that most e-mail programs will automatically delete all 'junk mail" after a certain number of days. You can try that, and I hope that it works. Best Regards

LITF are you referring to email, or to the message service within this site? If the latter, Simon would have to weigh in. I don't use the JW Discussion messaging much, but I don't see a way to block users.

Yes, I am referring to the messaging service within this site.
I am also curious if other people were being asked to do similar.
What puzzles me is that I can't find Bola in the list of users???
If someone keeps messaging you after you have asked them not to, you can message me the details and I will look into it.
But only if it's repeat requests after that.
otherwise we could play a trick on this funny guy and spread his email around the web
I have told him that I have no intention of emailing a total stranger from my personal email address, but they keep sending me this demand.
Turns out this is a complete fabrication.
Not sure why you'd do this, or what you think you gain, but it's a dick move especially as you included their email in your post.
Well, this suddenly became interesting...
Simon,
My apologies if you think I have erred in relation to this matter. I would like to know how someone who's name I can't find on the users list can message me. I have only replied to them via this website's message option as that is how they messaged me.
@LostintheFog next time attach a screenshot demonstrating your claims, obviously obscuring sensitive data
