Please stop replying to the mass PM. Everyone received it; not just you, and they received the exact same copy. It was not directed to you. It is not about you. It is a gentle reminder to stick to good grammar as much as you can. That's all. It is not about a review you wrote or a post you made. I don't even know you, and I have never read a thing by you. It's not that I don't want to get to know you, but with 850 active members, it's impossible to know all of you. So please, don't apologize for using bad grammar. Don't reply to a mass PM as if only you received it. I don't want replies; my inbox gets too many PMs that will go unanswered as is. So please, do not hit that reply button. Please.

I wonder how people can consistently ignore the "This is a mass PM, sent to everyone. DO NOT REPLY" line. Are they just blind to the first half of the page?

I been good Razz I don't think I've ever replied to one *smugness*

lol, this time around I neglected to add the "DO NOT REPLY." I didn't add it the last two times, so I thought it wasn't necessary. But I guess this one sounded personal, or people took it the wrong way.

Ahh, I've been a good girl and never replied to mass PMs. However I have be tempted to push the reply button but I decided not to push Nate's buttons. [/cornypun]

I'm good - I've never replied.

This one really made me want to, though. I'm not sure why, but I resisted.

Nate, we all know I am the only one to get a MASS PM. Wink

At least I've never replied to any... yet.

Darnit Mark! I thought for sure this thread was going to confuse you into believing everyone received and not just you! How did you figure it out?

I have to admit, whenever you send out a mass PM I get this overwhelming urge to reply to it.
