I've been a lurker on Real Money for a few years, but decided to let my subscription lapse when it expires for a variety of reasons about the site that just annoy me despite the fact that I do find some of the site's columnists and commentators insightful and thought-provoking.
That said, is it just me or has TSCM been jacking up the number of e-mail advertisements to Real Money subscribers in recent weeks? I've had like 5 of them in the past week or so, all from 'Jim Cramer' and each espousing a different subscription service of the site.
I've been a paying RM member for several years and I cannot remember seeing so many ads sent to me by them. Now and then I'd get something touting a new service, but this is definately noticeable shift in their marketing -- and there's no option in account preferences to say "no" to such things, either. (I don't subscribe to any of their member emailings, either)
I gather for whatever reason, TSCM feels the need to start spamming its own customers now?
