I signed up at one point for the newsletter, I want the newsletter, I enjoy the newsletter.
I don't mind getting emails when stuff in my wishlist is on sale.
I really want sales receipts.

I used to get messages when my favorite vendors had new items, but I can no longer find favorite vendors anywhere on this site.  I can live with that.

But today, I got a message that some vendor I've never heard of has a new product.  Please don't start down that path.  I have zero interest in that kind of message.   I looked at the vendor's store and I have never purchased anything by that person and now I never will.   I'm not listing the vendor because that would be mean.

If the vendor sent an email to you directly, I'm not sure how they got your email address.  The only way that you would have received an email from a vendor through our system is being a previous buyer of theirs, and them sending out an update email.

If you received an ebot about a new release, then that vendor must be on your favorites list, otherwise they sent it to you directly and not through any of our systems.

You can find your favorite vendors list here:  http://www.renderosity.com/homepage.php?page=4  (on your homepage under the "store" link.)

"I got a message that some vendor I've never heard of has a new product."

If it was an ebot, consider the possibility that one of your favourite vendors has changed their username.

The vendor is not on my favorites list, but thanks for pointing out where that is now!

The message was from staff@renderosity dot com.

It was exactly like one of the usual messages about a new item from a favorite vendor.

It didn't seem normal, so I was concerned that r'osity had suddenly decided to start randomly suggesting new vendors.

If you still have the email, could you please forward it to vendors@renderosity.com so that I can investigate as to why you would be receiving it?

Thanks!

Okie dokie, on its way...

Yep, that the system generated message that is sent to all members that have that vendor on their favorites list, but you already said they weren't on your fav's, so now I'm not sure.

Just went and looked at your favorite vendors, and they are on your list, which is why you received the message.  If you don't want to receive ebots when they release something, all you need to do is remove them from your favorite vendors list.
