Use your brain, idiots.

Ever received an email like this?

Hey, people. Sorry to break the news, but looks like all of those warnings were real! The use of MSN and e-mail will cost money from Summer 2007 onwards. If you send this message to 18 different people from your list, your little MSN icon will turn blue and that will make it free for you. If you don't believe me, go on to (www.msn.com) and see it yourself. Don't foward this message, but copy and paste it so that people will actually read it. It is Andy and John - the directors of MSN - sorry for the interruption, but MSN is really closing down. This is because too many inconsiderate people are taking up all the names (eg. making up lots of different accounts for just one person), and we are only left with 578 names. If you would like to close your account, DO NOT SEND THIS MESSAGE ON. But, if you would like to keep your account, then SEND THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST. This is no joke, as we will be shutting down the servers. Send it on, thanks. WHOEVER DOES NOT SEND THIS MESSEAGE, YOUR ACCOUNT WILL BE CLOSED AND IT WILL COST YOU 100.00 (pending) A MONTH TO USE. SEND THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST. NOW YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO. PLEASE DO NOT FORWARD THIS OR REPLAY. COPY THE WHOLE E-MAIL. RETURN TO YOUR INBOX AND CLICK ON NEW. THEN PASTE 'THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION'. Hey everyone, i don't normally send this sort of stuff out, but I had a look on the internet and its actually true that by the 30th November, we will have to pay for the use of our MSN and e-mail account(s), unless we send this message to at least 18 contacts on our contact list. It's no joke, but if you don't believe me, then you can see for yourself - go to the site (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/1189119.stm) - and see for yourself. Anyway, once you've sent this message to at least 18 contacts, your MSN icon will turn blue. Please copy and paste, but don't forward it, as people won't take notice of it.

I am sick and tired of receiving this mail. So this is my rather irate response.

I have written this on both email and this blog. (Besides, I would like to make a point that the above message doesn't amke sense, and the evidence is insufficent) I would like to beseech you and your logic-depraved minds to do actual RESEARCH before seeing the message, panicking and forwarding it, no questions asked.

"MSN will start charging user fee! Send this to XXX number of people, then your msn icon will turn blue, and you'll be saved."

Certain BLIND people also provided the newslink.(http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/1189119.stm)

Check the source, idiots. If you are so concerned about it, do an online research.

Ever done an English examination beofre? Did your teachers remind you in primary school to read the comprehension passage CAREFULLY so as to avoid MISTAKES? Well, I suggest to you that you do the same to news articles. Here's three useful quotes you will find interesting.

"Microsoft's UK managing director told the Independent on Sunday that fees could be introduced within 12 months. "

"Microsoft stresses that the site's core facilities including Hotmail will remain free.

Fees will be demanded for extra services that are now under development, such as an advanced filter system to protect email accounts from junk mail. "

Sorry Hotmail, I don't use any extras, so you can't charge me for them. Or I will sue your butt off.

I suggest you check the date of that news article too. It was published on Sunday, 25 February, 2001, 11:00 GMT .

People, I think you won't be so retarded to know the difference between 2007 - 2001.

That's a total of SIX years+.

Which means that if it was true they will start charging at 2002.

Which is also FIVE years AGO.

Now, before one of you idiots lose your head and start panicking, lemme ask you: are you being charged? The answer is, you aren't. Which means that the above news article is NULL and VOID.

Anyway, if they were suffering such deep losses in profit from the advertising department, they won't hesitate to delay charging us for five years, would they? I hope that my assumption is right that you people have a smidgen of logic in your heads. Even people that did not take business courses will know this.

Here's evidence to back up my claim that it doesn't exist. And very strong evidence it is, too.

Here's the link, I want you to READ it carefully, word by word. (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/4778046.stm)

There's some useful tips inside for you pathetic morons who sent this on, about frauds and spammers.(No offence to friends concerned, I am pissed) Next time, DO YOUR RESEARCH.
