Got a bunch of "Activate User Account" emails
by Quietust on 2016-11-02 (#182244)

Between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM today, I received 24 "Activate User Account" emails for a bunch of newly created accounts.

I assume these were intended to go to Administrators, and the forum still thinks to seem that I am one...

Sorry about that, I think it's because your account was set as a founder, and that had enabled the admin stuff. I've removed that setting, the last activation email went out just a few minutes ago, but hopefully that will be last of those. If not, let me know.
