Everyone, I am really upset about what happened. I want to offer compensation to our members as a way to say sorry. But I am struggling to determine what I can offer to them? Could you please help suggest some options that I could implement easily for a massive number of people? I do want to send one final email to them, from my personal account, with a clear subject line "Compensation for today's email problem" and etc. Please help me... I have such a bad pit in my stomach from all this. Worse than even losing 10k in a trade! Mike

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.

Thanks.

No worries Mike and , personal, no need for any compensation. It can happen to everybody.

Hope you find the cause of it.

Take care and be safe.

Nothing needed for me.
I love FIO and the emails were not an issue for me.
You do so much for the community, a simple I'm sorry suffices.

Thanks

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.

I feel left out my email was fine lol.

You didn't get any newsletters?

BTW, I have no clue what he is talking about. We don't ban people for creating tools.

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.

If anyone is receiving error messages when opening threads, please let me know.
