Maybe bec. of the threats such as the unlucky years that one would have if one will not send a particular msg to a given # or the way of thinking that people wouldn’t lose anything if they’ll do such thing like sending it to others?
I guess, People, esp. Filipinos are superstitious in nature bec. if they aren’t, then those chain msgs/letters have probably ended already.

personally, i don’t believe in luck, but there are still some messages worth sharing to others, so i forward ’em.
…but, of course, if they’re just a waste of time, i usually just ignore ’em. they’re pretty annoying, especially the “cursed” ones. i’m pretty sure the “curses” they hold are not true. hey, i’m still alive, aren’t i? and i still feel blessed.:)

oops, medyo nalayo ata yung comment ko sa question mo. i just said my reasons, and didn’t quite share my opinion.
i think people forward this stuff for any of the following reasons:
– they’re true believers of luck.
– they fear the unknown.
– they’re skeptical but fear being cursed in case the curse in the message was true.
as for our race, i think we’re naturally superstitious.
oh, and please forward this comment (upon reading it) to 50 people in the next 30 seconds or you’ll have a terrible itch on your back, particularly in the area that’s just out of your reach. hehehe… 😀
Years ago I still forward inspiring ones without consequences. It just became so tiring and repetitive that I never forwarded any one again.
@mike: That joke was quite old though it still cracks me up everytime. 😆

seriously, forwarding inspirational messages gets old quite fast, especially if you receive the same message just a few days later.

wla lang…minsan dahil trip lang…
Takot sila? Haha. =) I don’t believe but I think I have to. I’ve been loveless for ages. Haha. Dahil ba dun? Wehehehehe.
Actually it annoys me, and I believe most people too, that’s why I never spread them. And to not feel guilty, I just don’t read them. Haha.
because it’s so convincing you can’t help but believe=P
pero minsan obvious na hindi talaga totoo may factor lang talaga na “wala naman mawawala e”, that’s why.
