Do you let other users here on Y/A send you personal email?
Now I know why a lot of people here don't' allow others to send them personal email. I got this whining email from this "obviously" disturbed person complaining too me about one of my answers. LoL!!! He was quite emotional about it, and all I have to say is now I understand why people block their email address from this place. I've allowed emails to be sent to me since I started this account last year, and have had no problems with anyone, but now I'm blocking it off because I don't want to read someone's whinings. What about you? Do you allow access or do you block personal emails? Just curious.

I don't allow it. If I want to correspond with someone, I invite them personally. By the way, I just read your answer to the "Identifying yourself by the body" question. It is unfortunate that people like yourself are constantly being placed in some category and judged. Throughout history, this has been the case. Did you know that Thomas Edison was thought to be retarded? Please continue being yourself, and you will meet people who "see" you, not just your body or circumtances.

I allow users to email me. If I receive a pissy email from someone, I can either piss back or just ignore them. It's as simple as that. I enjoy hearing from the nice people here who are polite even when they disagree with me. To me, it isn't worth missing out on that just because there are a few who refuse to control their emotions. But to each his/her own.

I allow access, I can read the first couple lines and know exactly where someone is going. Many times, it goes in the trash, but alot of times, people are making genuine inquiries, or seeking clarification on a answer.

I allow it because allthe people who have emailed me haven't been so bad. Some of the people are boring as hell and have nothing to talk about, but others are pretty nice.

I did allow it until today. I got a very nasty email calling me some nasty names. After reading all your comments, I think I will start allowing emails again. You are all right, it feels good to get friendly emails and to just ignore the bad ones. thanks.

I don't either you can tell me I got the best answer but I don't want to hear you BS about what I said to your stupid question that probably shouldn't even be asked.
Too many weirdo's I am good on the emails unless I give it to them.

I've blocked them. While I'm sure most of the people who would want to email me are wonderful, I don't want some troll or jerk constantly bugging me.

Allow. I love to read the rantings of some of these 'nut jobs', but, I also love the positive, constructive and sincere feedback, critique and philosophies I receive.

I allow it, I've only received a couple of 'mean' emails, but I don't pay attention to them. = P
