I got it, too.

i got one and don't even use his content...lol

Ditto! I think it was definitely a mass email.

Hahaha...a spammer being spammed. Sweet!

got it too

DynaMite

Yep, I got it too and was told that it was sent to all their customers. They said whoever was doing it has been "dealt with". I guess a lot of people don't read their licenses. I was freaked out at first though, I don't think it should have been sent to everyone.

Paul M could polish a bit on his customer service tactics

funny guy...

Yeah i got one too and thought it was directed to me.
I mean the way the topic is and they way he just comes out and lashes about breaking rules in the body without respecting his loyal customers by saying a nice "Hello webmasters" . Kind of upsetting.

I love Markham's content, yet this email at first scared me then I got pissed off as I find out it was a massmailing, now I am just mildly fuming. I figure by evening time I will be over it. I just do not want it lingering in the back of my head next time I buy content.

I get up today, already a little irratable from poor sleep, open my email and looking down the list of topics I see "Breaking our contract terms!" Which causes me to spit coffee all over my keyboard (literally, I had to plug in a different one).

I have way to many sites, tons of content floating about, well a whole manner of things. From reading that mail it appeared it was directed soley at me. The wording should have been proof read and handled in a much more delicate way.

It is very akin to an email I got from a sponsor once. Topic said "Account under invesitigation for cheating", Same basic thing, seemed like it was directed at me, yet apparently was just a ill written mass mail directed at 2 or 3 cheaters.

Please people, use your webmaster email lists with more care. Proof read your stuff and try to look at them and see how they come across.
