Mike, I wouldn't sweat it. I did wake up this morning scrolling twitter and kept getting the same email notification from FIO, lol. It was a wtf moment but I immediately chalked it up to some kind of human error.
Appreciate you posting this up here. 5%-10% discount on all elite memberships for the next week would be pretty kick ass. I'd buy immediately.
This. You've built a community based on values. Certainly overlooking a minor mishap like this, especially if you apologized for the inconvenience, is the norm in this community.
Edit: and my personal expectation towards the members of this community. We're all human.
I certainly don't need anything. I did what probably 99+ % of the members did when I saw the multiple emails.... I said, "Oops, looks like something went wrong, it will get fixed" and forgot about it. People understand small and unintentional computer issues, and roll with them.
It is a good thing that you want to make things up for everyone, and if I can think of anything I will post it. But I think the community will be understanding.

Honestly dude I thought it was pretty funny. I just turned my notifications off and sent you a PM about it.
Mistakes happen in Trading and with Tech.
I once removed all the memberships of a Windows Sever SMS group in a 5000+ seat domain environment. The script attached to the group caused a backup to the local file server from the machines targeted. I removed the membership because I didn't want to target any while I tested something. Problem was SMS groups without explicit memberships target EVERYTHING. Within about 2 hours I'd caused errors Domain wide when the file servers started running out of space.
It took me about 6 hours of work that afternoon and night to resolve. It was pretty funny though, and I learnt from it.
Don't be too hard on yourself, yeah you fucked up, but laugh and learn from it! Thanks for the explanation too.
