I've just had another junk mail to my webmaster account for the tvrcc-northants club from tvrworld. (well, makes a change to the nob-enlargement ones )

Being a cynical type, I wondered if any other tvrcc members (particularly those that maintain their regional websites) have recieved such mail.

From what I can tell so far it's another TVR portal and I'm happy to post our club details (contacts etc) on there providing it's that type of site (rather than some soleless site written by advertisers).

thoughts please...

Hi Steve

I got that too, I will have a chat with the guys who run our egroup before I decide what to do. (if anything)

Keep in touch.

Cheers Nic,

I must add that so far there doesn't seem to be any details on the site (from other regions etc).

Drop me a mail offline if you like (I don't want to incur a possible slanging session!!)

Yup - I've received one too.....ditched it (basing my action on the assumption that the TVRCC office will have also received one and they will decide whether to support the venture).

ranked as the number one TVR web site

After PH, TVR Eng and TVRCC?

Received an invite also. Undecided on my stance. I think providing a regions details is harmless enough. Whether I'll see any benefit for doing so tho' is debatable.

Not much in the way of cars on there given that it's supposed to be searching the TVR-Ads lists as well.

Yup....I received one also.

My site has not been updated for quite some time owing to the work commitments of our web guy.
But...it is about to be revamped!!!

I was unsure what to do with this mail....now it will go into my 'maybe' folder

Steve, that was my thought too. If it's an enthusists site then I'm happy to comply and provide our location, contact details etc (which are on the website anyway and hence already in the public domain).

However, I suspect (being a cyncial old fart) that it's probably more focused as an advert portal and the last thing I want is more spam sent to my RO and myself.

Let the PH massed vote.!!

They are specifically targetting the RO addresses rather than webmaster it would appear, as I've seen nothing (mind you our site isn't finished either...)

I see a dozen of these types of e-mail a week for the various domains I look after offering cheaper hosting, more hits, more thoughput etc. etc.

Their package might be better, but the current one is free on account Paul Calland owning CypherWeb, how do these guys expect to make their profit?

(Not that I'm cynical or dubious!)

You are probably right, I've recieved nothing via the webmaster address.
