The following is ~the body of~ and ~my response to~ an email I recieved today:

A word of advice: sending spam emails to fans of Voivod
will do nothing but deepen the rifts that have
unfortunately surfaced and generally piss some people off.
Your little propaganda campaign is accomplishing nothing.

Now please leave me out of this little bitch-fest.

thanks.

Any clues as to who is this bored and bitter?

Some dipshit over at .net is under the delusion that certain people from this site have sent emails to new registrants at .net, convincing them (okay, us) to "switch" to this site.

Buncha bullshit! Annki and I (since we're relative newbies) both denied this vociferously, but there's no convincing people who believe such utter moronic tripe.

Or maybe I'm a drunken idiot and I misread your post - was the "spam emails" part your response to this person?

Fuck it.

Spam to me is unsolicited email, sent to multiple recipients. It looked like something that was probably also sent to people other than myself. Anyway, I have since recieved a reply apologizing for the email, and this person also says that they are a member here at VVF, but not much else. Oh well, no biggie I guess. I think it's completely absurd that they think people are being 'coaxed' away from Yuri's site.

I received that email also, and I thought it would have brought me back to this site since that has been the nickname given to voivodfan.com from the voivod.net site; so, I was surprised that it led me to Yuri's site!!
I actually looked at the site for a little while and took 2 of the polls!!!
It didn't relly bother me getting it, I just thought it was 'strange & ironic'.

I think it's about time for Voivod to get to work on their best album EVER,
release it, and shut us all the hell up about this barrage of nonsense.

And to whoever wrote the email - no worries, man. It's all in good fun.
(now that I know the joke was in reverse)

Tangento, maybe someone was trying to see if your email was actually working! (

) Glad to see it works!

By the way, the email adress is yahoo.ca, someone who registered on the canadian Yahoo. I don't know if it could help, since the Internet knows no bounderies, but that's my contribution to the mystery.
