Cendrillon Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 This week I've replied to two different posts via PM system. I did this in order to keep the replies non public. Have I heard back from the two I messaged? NO, not a word!Sometimes I wonder why I bother. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Sometimes I think that it does not work properly. So they may not have got them??????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanH Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 I can no longer send a pm...only reply, so I have to reply to an old one if I want to contact someone I have had a conversation with before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cendrillon Posted April 7, 2017 Author Share Posted April 7, 2017 Thanks for your comments Idun and Norman. Perhaps the PM system doesn't work now.In both recent cases I actually mentioned on their posts that I had sent P.M.s. Life on this forum is sometimes a mystery.?

idun Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 I have sent you a testing PM. Let me know if it works please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cendrillon Posted April 8, 2017 Author Share Posted April 8, 2017 Thanks Idun, it worked well. Email to tell me there was a message and I was able to access it on my mobile, I even managed to log in on that tiny screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loiseau Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Is there a minimum number of posts that a new member has to make before their PM system is active? I seem to remember something about that years ago, or maybe it was on another forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanH Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 How do you send a pm now?The old method of clicking on the 'pm' under the members name no longer works for me.I get a screen it's true but the message just comes back to me rather than going to the member.

idun Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Sent you one NH, if it gets through, please send me one back[:D] If in doubt I just send to the email bit, that sometimes works better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the list of PMs sent the recipients name does not appear, all I see is n/a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatHCA Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Perhaps it would have been better to have checked that out first rather than posting a comment critical of the intended recipients Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idun Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 [quote user="PatHCA"]Perhaps it would have been better to have checked that out first rather than posting a comment critical of the intended recipients[/quote]Hmmmm, and that as far as I am concerned is a very unfair comment. I suppose most of us have an expectation that it is working, and that we are not being replied to for what so ever the reason, the only one that we do not usually consider is that it never got through in the first place and just how would we know if it did or not????I do not blame Cendrillon for wondering what was happening and being frustrated.

Cendrillon Posted April 13, 2017 Author Share Posted April 13, 2017 Thanks Idun for your fair comments. It was me not GG who started this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Sorry, I have edited the post Cendrillon, not GG as you point out......... so, sorry again about that.No idea why I did that, fingers quicker than brain when typing sometimes, or just olde age.

Gardengirl Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Not a problem, Idun, my brain lags behind my fingers too at times! Pleased it's been sorted out, Cendrillon, but I don't know how you were meant to have checked it out first before posting......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loiseau Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 But where ARE the PMs that one has sent?I can see how to send one, and they seem to go off ok. But surely one used to be able to look at the history of the PMs sent, along with their replies. I can't find anyway of doing that.Grrr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Um............I don't want to sound complacent but I was so intrigued by this thread that I have just checked my PMs. All is as usual, all to view though I must admit I haven't sent one to anybody.Could be you are using one of those "devices" instead of just the ordinary ordi?

Cendrillon Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 I am on the ordi now but was using a device before. However I could see what was sent by me on that device . I will take another look at my PMs now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cendrillon Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 Just checked. No difference I still see NA under the list of recipients and this applies to all my PMs sent for the last goodness know how many months! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loiseau Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 But WHAT do you click on up top to see them?I have tried my username, settings, etc, but cannot see PMs mentioned anywhere.I must have had a mental aberration, cos I know I could see them once upon a time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idun Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 But once logged in, on pad or puter and on the main page, there is always private messages.HOWEVER, I have used private messages and messages have not got through, of that I am sure.Let us face it, this board never/rarely performs as it should...... but it is the only one I go on, so put up with it.
