Flashmobbers' Ignorance - Followup
m0nty (with the kewl number instead of letter in his name) has updated the NZ Flashmob site to say the following:
A small number of our mail list members participated in there own virtual flashmob this morning. Part of the list was named ‘auckland’. This, unintentionally, meant that new members joining Auckland, early this morning, were broadcast to about 20% of our membership. We are really sorry for any disruption it may have caused, this was a genuine error.
However, this was fixed at 10:35am. Ironically, everyone who continued to reply and complain about the ‘spam’ created it.
The majority kept their head, and the ones who lost it and threatened me, need to stick their bananas somewhere special and question using their professional, work email addresses for this sort of thing in the first place.
