Norma Desmond Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I received 8 identical email notifications about the Boudoir photo contest this morning. How do I opt out of receiving PN news emails? We didn't need dialogue. We had faces! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy Vongries Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I also received 2 invitations for each of four contests - don't need to opt out, but one invitation to each would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie H Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I think it may be this option on your Account Settings page. I have it turned off and I didn't get any notices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norma Desmond Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 Sandy, what were the other three contests? I didn't get any except for Boudoir. Maybe someone's trying to get me with the program! :rolleyes: We didn't need dialogue. We had faces! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norma Desmond Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 Thanks, Julie, got it! We didn't need dialogue. We had faces! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-P Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Thank you for letting me know, we launched 5 new contests today - will add to the bug list. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Weishaupt Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I got 4 invites to the Boudoir contest. I also have "no newsletters" checked, so that may or may not help. Interestingly, I also have "no e-mails" checked, but got 4 of these. There's a certain irony to getting an invite to a boudoir photo contest in light of my position in the recent threads regarding uninvited nudes in portfolios. I'm shruggin' this one off and getting a good laugh. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frigo Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Glen....any rules to these contests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norma Desmond Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 When I click on the link in the email, I'm taken to a page about the contest that has a big green rectangular button saying ENTER THIS CONTEST. When I click that, it simply brings me to the forum listing home page, with no sign of any contest or link to it. NOW I'M GETTING THE SERVER ERROR MESSAGE THAT I HAVE TO WAIT 61 MINUTES BEFORE POSTING SO I WILL TRY TO RELAUNCH MY BROWSER AND SEE IF THIS WILL POST! We didn't need dialogue. We had faces!

Sanford Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I got eight, I think because there are five contests I have two email addresses. I probably should have gotten ten! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaTango Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I got the same thing. Tried to line up an entry for the Lingerie Lisa contest, but managed to get myself arrested trying to hire a model. Seems like here in New York when you offer to pay someone to come to a hotel room and dress up in sexy outfits they call it solicitation. Don't do it. Please stop sending me future contest offers. I can't afford the legal consequences anymore. 3 "I See Things..." The FotoFora Community Experience [Link] A new community for creative photographers. Come join us!

Sanford Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 The prizes make no sense. If someone is skilled enough to win the portrait competition, probably the last thing they need is a course on how to take better portraits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanford, anyone who thinks they have no more to learn because they won a PN contest probably has a lot more to learn. 2 We didn't need dialogue. We had faces!

Tim_Lookingbill Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 OK, I was hoping this got addressed. Yesterday I received about the same amount of notices as Fred but in my email's Spam box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
