Do you ever get nervous when you check your email and see, "You have received a message from another user"?

I don't get these often but when I do, I'm a little scared to check open them. How about you? Just asking.

    Yes. Terrified!

    Usually its because I've been spotted looking at a question on pets and I appear to be the only person that the 'spay your dog brigade' havent battered, so I get an email whether I have a dog or not. Or i've answered an innocent question from a pregnant lady, and end up with 3 emails telling me why abortion is so wrong.....when the question was about formula.

    Its the only way the ranters can get to you where it hurts.

    Yes. Because I barely receive e-mails from other users.

    Barely.

  • Yeah I get very nervous when I see that becuz most of the time I only e-mail someone to ask them something important or to inform them of something but when I know that I never even emailed them, I'm like,"Uh ohhh" lol.

    Sometimes it makes me nervous and sometimes I get happy and I'm like, "Yayyy" if I havent recently answered or asked any questions on Y!A. It makes me feel somehwat important that someone aknoweldged me. lol

    I get EXCITED. I've either made a friend or an enemy! Usually the one I intended to make! Block your email on your profile. Very simple.

    It's only happened to me once and the comment wasn't very nice. I think the person that responded to me had some screws loose and totally misunderstood my answer. So, to answer your question, yes- if I did get another one, I'd be a little nervous.
