Only when I screw up, or for Illuminati meetings. Sometimes asking me to start a " free so and so thread."
And the usual spam from slowwy.
 ACK!

That's because you make it seem like you're "reasonable" and will negotiate. I cut that problem out, so then they go whine to you since you're the "reasonable" one.

I get one about once a month, and it's almost always a "why isn't my computer working!!!" PM.

(Almost) every day. Often several a day. I probably get more PMs than emails these days (not counting spam, of course).

Maybe once in two months, unless I'm planning to launch a test for a mod.

I get one every time I ban someone, but that's about it.

And I'll beat MTG to the punch, and say Yes, I don't get that many.

Never. People hate me. I'm sure my name would fade from Apolyton if I didn't have my habit of sticking around like some alcoholic diva too drunk to know the spotlight has been turned off.

Sometimes one or two a week, sometimes none for a month. Meh. Enough. Plus of course, I have to host IWS quite frequently ...

Once every two weeks or so.
I get many more PMs when I'm banned, because I send PMs much more often as well

Do you think deposed African leaders and Penis Enlargement ads go hand-In-Hand?
I wasnt sure..what with the "Myth" about deposed African leaders being more of a man so to speak??
