Context missing from report
"I understand why the messages were reported as they appeared out of context. The other user and I had arranged in the Cozy Gamers group to continue a conversation — I was following up on something they'd asked about. I wasn't aware they'd changed their mind about chatting. I should have waited longer before messaging again and I won't do that in future. I'd be happy to provide screenshots of the original group conversation if that's useful."
