Am I the only one who read that and thought "perhaps you should have paid attention to what you were doing?" I know it sounds dickish, but seriously, why not own up to the fact that not every user interface is tailored to you, and that sometimes you are fallible?
- unreal37 14y agoI'd like to see screenshots of the interface before judging if its deception or user error. Also, sounds like it had a positive effect on your life - old friends happy to hear from you.
- matthaughey 14y agoI wish I took screenshots, but honestly my memory is I only saw six invites to review and in tiny 10px text below the "connect now" button was a thing saying (and also 1,132 more). For what it's worth, a designer that works on this feature tweeted an apology and said they should add a warning, as it was way more common than intended.
