16. The emails are excessive

For Petes sake one is enough. If I choose or don't choose to donate sending me six isn't going to change my mind. All this tactic does is piss people off. It's like cyberstalking. Enough! The same "genius" behind this so called strategy must be the same idiot behind the "donate now or we all die" emails during the run up to the midterms. It does nothing to generate enthusiasm or inform would be supporters but, instead, alienates people by making them feel like they are nothing but open pockets to pick. From now on I donate only to mail requests since they are less intrusive of my time and I can respond when I have time and desire not because of their endless haranguing.
