Ok, here is why I feel they have gone crazy. As if everyone on here didn't already know that. Here is what happened to me last night. I went to my e-mail and noticed that there were a LOT of e-mails. Mainly from one of the blogs on blogster that I am subscribed to. The blogger is *grasshopper@blogster.com* not a big deal. I know it is not her it is a blogster bug I feel pretty sure. Anyway, I had over 9,000 e-mails from grasshoppers *one post* on blogster. I thought, that can't be right. I was talking with my Mom on the phone while looking at my e-mail. Well, I need to back up. The reason I was talking to Mom on the phone is we were talking on IM and it locked up. So, I called her to tell her why I wasn't responding to her IM messages was because I couldn't. During this time it jumped from 9,000 to nearly 11,000 e-mails then so on, and so on. I was able to get into blogster through firefox and started unsubscribing to everyone. I still have them as buddies but, didn't want this to happen again. Finally, I asked hubby *HELP* do something please you are my computer guru. By this time I am up to 15,789 e-mails and climbing. It kept going up and up all the way to over 27,000 e-mails. OMG!!!! The only thing he could do really was to just go into my personal e-mail and block blogster from my e-mail account. I hope this doesn't happen to any of you that are still on blogster. I am still having issues with my e-mail because of this but, we have it down to just over 12,000 e-mails to get rid of now. ~ Geez Man!!!!

It has been crazy. Thankfully hubby helped me get rid of them as get rid of the ones on my Mom's computer too. She had 38,000 blogster e-mails. I unsubscribed to everyone that I was subscribed to over there.

Thanks Deb!! It is a mess. Bluegrasslady (my Mom) is on here. She is lizzieann.

Ouch!!! That is why I use my newsgator to collect feeds on those I like to read, rather than subscribe. Of course, they screwed up the feeds too...

Not much we can do but wait and see how it goes there. At least this site is really good, and about all of us have migrated or at least visit here now. All us "old regulars" from there.

I know what you mean. I really think that it is yet another blogster bug causing this. I may just have to close up shop there altogether.

Thanks Jon!! I wished that I hadn't. This is just crazy!! Now my Mom is getting hit with thousands of e-mails and one of the bloggers on blogster commented on mine and said the same thing happened to them with over 18,000 e-mails sent out. Ugh!!!

reply by texastar on May 4, 2008 8:29 PM ()

I think you better get busy reading and responding to all those emails.

Really!! It is just crazy!! Please don't think I'm avoiding you if you IM me. I can't seem to get on there right now.

Will you be offended if somebody snickers...??? Not that I would do that.... Twenty-seven thousand... guess that's really no laughing matter... Hope you get it cleaned up!
