OK....this is just a very few messages from one of my other groups and I have many more where this came from too & many other groups that feel the same way about this multiply..... Peachyyy

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hoss, Multiply is sending out invites to everyone on my email list... most of them do not even know about MSN Groups... I am getting emails from several.. asking what is going on..... Some have joined and all of their contacts are being invited. I know they are not joining the Peers 60s Plus Group... this would be for the overall Multiply site... I think this is horrible.

This is a huuuge invasion of Privacy.....

If Multiply is going to abuse the email addresses... I do not want to belong to this site.

Unless I create a new email that as no contacts on it ... just for Multiply.

They also show what city the person lives in... again, invasion of privacy..... good thing I put down the wrong one.... but it is stil listed.. based upon the zip code.

Please let me know, if I can block that sort of thing.

Thank you.

I have received sooooo many complaints that I had to write an email to all of my contacts explaining what happened.... and for them to remove themselves from the Site... they now will have to write their contacts... WHAT A MESS.

I cannot believe a site would not protect emails...much less use it for enlarging their site. A perfect example of invasion of Privacy...

I got a response back from one of my contacts who have friends who joined this site at least 6 months ago, it caused them so many problems... they all dropped out.

Hoss, I'm not sure about this site... I will consider rejoining when I get a new email addy that has no contacts.

I received e-mails and changed my settings and that took care of the problem.

However, my home town showed and I could not figure out how to make it invisible. I can usually figures these things out,,,,,,,,but not this time. I received an e-mail from a man I do not know telling me he grew up near here. That scares me.

I deleted my group - NonasPlace, quit Peers60s group, and cancelled my membership in Multiply. I will not be back in that site.

I have a group in Yuku and that's where I am staying. It is easy to learn and understand and is well organized. I've accepted the fact that MSN is closing and I don't enjoy any of the options but until someone develops something better for my taste,,,,,,,,,Yuku is home for me.

Good luck with Multiply,,,,,,Linda and Hoss. I'll see y'all in chat as I don't want to loose touch with you but Multiply isn't the place for me.
