    Anyone else receive this in their personal mailbox?

    Dear Digital Elph, hi !

    You seem to be quite good at gardening;), I also like a lot gardening and learning new methods of taking care of plants. I would like to invite you at a discussion on gardening located here:Gardening, it would be very nice to have you there and to have you sharing your gardening experience, maybe help some poeple that are just starting:)) what do you say? I'll be waiting for you there to get other people interested in the Art of Gardening :)and love it as much as we do..anyway, hope to keep in touch on this forum too, it's really nice, take care.

    I dont think ive contributed enough to get noticed this quickly?!?

    I received it when I logged onto hipforums today. It was in my personal messages up in the top left corner where you log in and out. It is from a member named Renata. Maybe it is for real but it smells like spam to me which is why I asked if anyone else got it.

    I received that message today,too...since you and I are the only ones to mention it(so far),maybe it wasn't spam. I checked out the site,it looks pretty good..I may sign up.

    You can look up members in the members list,it's under the "forum options" menu at the top of the screen.

    I got something similar, but it said how s/he noticed how much I'm into meditation, then gave me a link to a forum with discussions about meditation. it was also from Renata.

    I got something similar, not concerning gardening, but my ability to speak german. I answered, because it didn't seem like real spam, and I got aswers, and we had a good conversation. But I think this it's not right to advertise to much for another forum.... So it is kind of spam.

    And others of the german Forum got that same message. I guess I am going to report it.
