Okay, here's the news, guys!
(my question)
Hi again Eric! Sorry for the trouble!
I noticed the rules change that says anything directing users to "disregard the email" are unacceptable.
My question is, are users supposed to use the link *no matter what* or ONLY to reject the password reset? As it is phrased now, the instructions seem to say that the link is only necessary if someone *does not* want their password to be reset. If that's the case, I am not sure how to respond when they *did* want the password to change.
Is the account locked because the password has been successfully changed, for instance? Or is it locked because they need to use the link no matter what?
Thanks for taking the time to clarify! :)

So, now we know, EVERYONE *MUST* use the link whether they want the new password change or not!
Can you post this in the requester thread too.

Maybe he's started weeding out the scammers with some blocks?
That would make sense and be good since I was getting a lot of nonsense and kind of felt bad rejecting them.

Or someone tell Eric to join MTC and he can answer everyone's questions at once.
I agree that the instructions have been really lacking and he could've done a lot better. But I don't know that anybody deserves that kind of punishment.

He recent string of short-answered replies tells me he's not having a very good Saturday night.
He probably thought he'd just throw up a bunch of hits on a weekend and go play golf or something and come back to it all done in a neat pile... I've seen simpler hits than these have pages of attached instructions

I know, but I forgot I needed one more to reach my quota before Pleco @Pleco sends out the Weekly Posting Activity Report emails tomorrow
I'm very pleased to say this week we not only hit, but wildly exceeded our shitposting target for the fifth quarter of 2017. basketcasey @basketcasey had a lot to do with that, but I'm proud of the entire team. And please read the memo on the new formatting for TPS reports everyone, thank you and have a fun BUT safe weekend.
