Everyone still e-mailing? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

ks · 01-02-2001, 12:29 AM

I hope everyone is still e-mailing N@N, because no matter what people tell you we CAN make a difference. I mean we convinced them to show an encore(sp?) of FOL, so we sure as heck can convince them to put it on back to back. Spend half an hour watching FOL (unfortunately on half an hour) and then e-mail N@N for the next half. It doesn't take long, and if you have to just copy and paste. Please though, let's get FOL back on for a full hour because I'm going through withdrawls already

Ok, now stop reading this letter and go e-mail N@N!

ks --

Well, to be honest, I don't have the time to go around to the different websites to collect various emails. Could you list the ones you are sending to, so that the addresses can be cut and paste into emails?? That would help me out a lot!

JAYMAN-

There is only one adress I'm sending to, and I'm copy and pasting to that same one at least 15 times a day-even if it's the same letter over and over. I send them all to 'postmaster@tvland.com'.

ks-

Are u sending N@N duplicates? Im asking cuz I went to the website and in the 'write to us' section I found this: "Please only send your e-mail once. Because of the volume of e-mail we receive, duplicates are automatically deleted."

ks · 01-02-2001, 03:48 PM

Jo-Po-

I read that as well, and no, I'm not sending them duplicates. Actually, the online company I use will not allow me to do that anyway for some reason.
Right now I'm playing 'buddy buddy' with them. Everytime they reply to my e-mails I send them one right back.
I hope they listen to us!

ks - be careful with sending too much duplicate mail. If they start getting alot of mail from one address, they will just filter that address directly into the garbage. What you should do is go to yahoo.com and do a search on free email, and start signing up for free email addresses. When N@N sees all these emails from different addresses, they will give it more preference than all that email from one person.

Coily-

LOL! That's actually what I'm doing. I have AOL so I have 7 different accounts-I'm sending a few letters a day from each account. My internet monitors me so I won't send over 5 letters a day to the same adress, so I'm pretty much set up. I just hope N@N listens to us!

Rocknroll-

Yeah, I thought it was the ratings, too, but according to an article I read and the commercials they ran it was based on the 'fansupport' and the letters they received requesting it. If the article was on target it's pretty amazing how many people support FOL considering it ran nearly 2 decades ago.

Michele35 · 01-02-2001, 05:56 PM

I've been basically doing the same thing, ks. Sending e-mails from 4 different addresses including my main home and work addresses as well as from Yahoo and AltaVista.

Believe me that ratings are very important but so is viewer mail. Based on what I've heard they do check their mail and do listen to us.
