Not SN related

[mrsbuttinski]

Is it just me or is XO reaching out to the rest of you?

Yesterday it was an email from the Bump about soldiering through the newborn phase, today the folks from the Nest are warning me not to ask newlyweds about the contents of their uteri.

Oh, and the form letter about how they are truly sorry to see me go.

I know they've been stepping up the email game, and actually sent out quite a few incredibly insensitive emails to people going through IF, etc.

[leroybrown]

They've been mass emailing folks. "We're sorry to see you go"=we preemptively banned you for no good reason. Kthxbai.

I imagine they're desperate not to show a drop in the number of accounts.

ETA: I gave them a junk email address to which I no longer have access so I can't comment as to their email game.  They did PM me the de-modding letter, but I didn't get it via email.

Same here, and now I'm really glad I did that.  When I saw the emails from some of the ladies on the IF/loss boards, my jaw dropped through the floor, and I had the urge to kick a unicorn.

This seems too much, even for them.

They have always been oblivious to the IF population. Form sticky posts that talk about baby names and ask for how your husband behaved in childbirth and stupid stuff. On adoption they would ask whether baby had your nose or your husband's. (These were posts on all boards; they just didn't use tact in where they put them.)

Woohoo!

Auntie. I went back to reference something you said and your reply was gone (the former board). And your private messages are gone as well.

Is it sop for those leaving?

Great!

I asked them to delete my account and content. They told me it could be 48 hours and that if I'd logged in during that time it would restart the waiting period.

I just want out. Some of my old posts are still googlable because I was quoted.

You're still listed as n00b until like 100 posts. It's just like the old school newb/bronze/silver/gold/platinum kind of thing.

Thanks mrsbuttinski and spooko

Your status is NooB until you have a certain number of posts.

I had a bone to pick with you about losing all the info from threads I'd bookmarked, but then I remembered I can harass ask you about stuff whenever.
