Question Private messaging won't work
Site wont allow me to use PM. I have selected yes to the PM option on my profile. What do I do?

Hi iammelinda


Enabling PM in your profile only means that others can PM you, and shows the PM link at the bottom of every post.

In order to PM someone else, click their PM link, or Open your User Panel an go to Private Messaging there.

I've sent you a test PM so let me know if you get it, an have probs sending anything.

iammelinda,

You'll have to use the site a bit more before you're allowed to PM. You'll probably be good to go tomorrow.

Yeah, this was a hack I wrote in order to slow the quick registration and PM spamming that was taking place a while back.

Talking of PM systems. I'm looking for a stand alone system just like the PM you have on here. Do any of you guy's know of such program?

Sorry if this is the wrong place please delete of move if it is.

Thanks.
