Hello,
I got a message on my home email supposedly from a SCF member. I didn't understand the message so I was hesitant to reply in case I was being phished. Then I thought that perhaps that person or that SCF was being phished and I should let someone know.

The message was about being careful because this website is hosted in Australia. Why would I need a warning about that? Did I do something wrong?

Karen

The font comment cracked me up. That's a huge pet peeve.

Crikey!
what a thread

Nitro, if you witnessed the plight of your general sheep
you would not want to take away their only joy,
freedom.
When you see what they endure, you kinda wish them
anything the poor blighters.
What they endure to keep you lot in woollen jumpers and socks.

I think you did the right thing Karen,
being vigilant, someone evidently has an issue with SCF.

And actually that Australian board that seems to cause some members to hyperventilate is hosted in ... the USA.

Tonymac, one could only sympathise with those members - when there was a tourettes monkey sitting on the very top of the over ripe coconut palm.

Beware, Rileysan. We have bird-eating spiders here. I should open the next parcel from Australia very carefully ...

I saw a special on tv the other night about the praying-mantis. Saw actually footage of one catching and eat a bird (humming bird) and another one catching and eating a mouse.

bobby131313,

I tried to send the message to you but it keeps bouncing back. After reading the banter I think it was legit but I assumed it wasn't because the sender referred to SFC not the other site.

I was WARNED by the sheriff of this website when I responded to a thread after he asked people to turn back to the original thread.

philb, I assume you are the same philb he accused of ranting (HA!) and I was responding to. If you were off-topic then I'm not sure I know what's 'on-topic'!?! (I really need to learn how to use the smilies)

Karen

okay will he found your email, but it had to be from the OZ site, as he refers to himself as the 'sheriff'.
I would just ignore him... why he sent an email to you through the SCF mail system is weird.
