Mass Email Failure

Post by Publisher » Sun Feb 21, 2021 12:54 am

Ignore three emails you may have just received warning you about your access privileges coming to an end today - unless they just did.

The mass email program, instead of sending it to 16 people, sent it to every registered user.

The GOOD news is, it gave me a window into how many useless registrations there are on here. The BAD news is a couple of total jerkoffs decided to send a final love letter.

Well perhaps good riddance to them.

Like any customer service function, dumping dead weight overboard is frequently a required exercise.

Ooops, sorry I emailed you before seeing this, Captain. Anyway, it was good to be reminded I had not visited y'all here in so long.

No foul Cap'n, kind of a wake up call actually, as I had log on just to confirm that I had made a post. I really need to do a better job at participating.

I was a little confuzed .. I was like "Has it really been that long, I know I've been slacking, but a who year, dang the pandemic really shut me down more than I thought it did .. "
So yay, good wake up call to check in, and re-up, and look at posts I haven't seen yet.

I don't know; seems like a good thing when they out themselves.
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.

We've been anticipating you brining some of the lovely lassies from the Great NW to GBN.

I hope you'll re-up, we miss you here. app.php/support-gbn

I had to go through hundreds of "Bad address" emails. I'm still not done.
