The WDFA somehow has gotten itself listed on a porn site. I only know this because I got an email from said porn site's webmaster today complaining about the lack of traffic coming from the WDFA. Um, fanfic? Porn? No, not the same thing. And this webmaster person was very huffy, saying if I didn't add a link back, I would lose my 70,000 hits a day to the WDFA from its site - um, okay, thanks, but 70,000 hits a day? Surely you jest. I think the WDFA is doing beautifully with approximately 25 a day. Weird the favours people think they are doing for you. But it certainly explains why so much of the content in my wdfa email addy is, well, x-rated and just generally Bad For Seema.

That wdfa email address has been a lot of trouble - it somehow got listed on an Arabic matrimonial site at some point - endless source of amusement for JEWEL, btw, as I received countless proposals from men addressing me as "Dear Wdfa" - sometimes in broken English, sometimes in gibberish (ie Arabic script that didn't come over properly in my browser). Five or six of these a day - go figure. And most of them were along the lines of: "My name is Mohammad. I am well-educated. I am looking for a bride. Please write me." And what amused me greatly was that wdfa email address is generic - it stands for Worf Dax Fanfic Archive - nothing else and how they decide that I was female and Arabic is very interesting. I did get the emails to stop when a nice gentleman with perfect English emailed me and I took the chance to explain the situation to him. He apparently wrote to the site where my email address was listed and I've not gotten any proposals since then. Nice man, that one.

That email address is quite the adventure, I have to say.
