You just spammed my entire friend list with private messages, without my confirmation!

I clicked 'import facebook friends' assuming it would simply import their friend id's and message them when I tried to send them something. When I saw that you wanted to send them "invites", I clicked "cancel", but you sent several hundred messages anyway. This is unacceptable behavior by any application. I haven't been this pissed in a long time, now I have to spend an hour manually messaging each of those people and apologizing for the spam.



We're extremely sorry about that- our invite system is having some glitches at the moment (were working fast on fixing the problem)


Apology accepted, good luck.


Fixed!
