@Mac: can you email me (scott AT gawker DOT com) with your username and email so I can look into this? And check your spam filter before doing so? Read more

@Mac: @SLRSpeedshop: There was certainly no dallying, unfortunately emailing 1.4m users is not very simple. There were some others that emailed seemingly random groups of users, but as of now it looks like we've contacted all email addresses associated with user accounts. Read more

@bookling: Try again tomorrow, see look for updates in the FAQ, and if things are still weird email help AT gawker DOT com. Read more

@Bleh: I don't believe they sent emails to nearly all users. Probably a much smaller subset. Read more

@sparkrainfire: We had to email about 1.4m users which is not a simple task, we've been working since last night to get those emails through. But it looks like as of now they have all been delivered. Read more

@Thyme Enough at Last: Unfortunately, sending nearly 1.4m emails is not a simple matter. We've been working non-stop to get them out as soon as possible. As of now it looks like all have been delivered. Read more

@Babboa: Yes, we've been working on sending emails since last night, unfortunately emailing 1.4m email addresses isn't a simple matter. But as of now it looks like all notifications have been delivered. Read more

@Eric Geller: Email servers are overloaded, if you haven't received anything by tomorrow, please try again. And do check your spam filter. Read more

@domEuro: It's from a third party, but appears to do a good job at parsing what was released. Still, you should change your password here — and any other site where you use the same password — regardless. Read more

@ohwhatnow: Please email help AT gawker DOT com — we can help you restore access, though it may take a few days. Read more

@clevernamehere: Unfortunately, sending nearly 1.4m emails is no easy task. You can't use Hotmail or Gmail. And making sure the emails are delivered (not marked as spam) is even harder. Read more

@Hal: We've had a red notice bar at the top of every site since last night — do you not see it? Read more
