I wonder if this was inserted by Michaels? At least I hope that’s the case…
I also just got their email, it’s longer, but this is the start:
Dear MakerPlace Sellers,
In the past 48 hours, we have finalized a set of technology updates that will help MakerPlace address the threat of bad actors in our community. Given the scope of this plan, we will not be able to complete the updates until after the holidays.
All MakerPlace messaging, including historical messages, will remain turned off until the technology updates are complete. During this time, MakerPlace employees are still able to access historical messages, and we are here to help you successfully fulfill all your orders.
