Cassis Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Anyone tell me what 'Enable Post Mouse-Over Popup' means? I've got it disabled. What happens if I enable it?Also, my PM setting has disappeared. How do I get it back? I've got all the email notification boxes ticked.Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 No idea - why don't you try it and let us know?Where's your spirit of adventure, man? Is this the nation that gave us Raleigh, Drake and Vasco de Gama? Be bold, strike out for knowledge and wisdom! Click that box! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 I've just checked and I've got it ticked, but I've still got no idea what it does... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 My PM's dropped off. Any idea how I get it back?Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Aaah! What it does, is it allows you to place your cursor over the title of a post and the first couple of lines come up in a little yellow box. It's been annoying me for ages, but I didn't know how to turn it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassis Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 Hang on a minute, maybe I'm being daft again - of course I can't see my own PM - but can you see it?Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Of course. Why do you want to PM yourself? Is there something you are afraid you might forget? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 Well, I keep seeing all these posts where people say 'I've PM'd you' and then later the person they PM'd will say 'That's very sweet of you' or something equally ... and I was feeling a bit left out. So I wanted to PM myself to say what a good bloke I am then send a public message agreeing and thanking me.Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassis Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 JayJay - I quite agree with what you PM'd me. And as regards your second point, I think it is kept between us. Mum's the word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassis Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 I have been overwhelmed by the PMs I have received. Thank you both - you know who you are. Especially Pip and JayJay. And I know who I am. Thanks again. I am close to tears.Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassis Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 No, no, sweeties. It's just I know I'm never going to win an Oscar so I may as well make the most of this moment.

fulcrum Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Can anyone confirm that the views heading in Private Messages means that the intended recipient has viewed the message? Or are there others with viewing privileges? It's just that on one of my PM's I had 8 views and 1 reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted June 4, 2006 Author Share Posted June 4, 2006 It means somebody has viewed it but not necessarily the recipient. Every time you open a PM in your own browser it will be counted as one view. Open it 5 times and it will register as 5 views. No idea if Forum Admin have viewing rights on PMs. I notice the PMs I received yesterday had 3 views each - I only looked at them once myself, so I've no idea who the other viewers were!Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoddy Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 I don't think that can be right Cassis. The moderators don't have access to private messages or emails and no-one from admin would have been around yesterday. Very strange.HoddyEdit - I don't think admin has access in any case.

Dick Smith Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 PMs start off with one viewing (when you write them) and every time you look at them you get another one. It works a bit like a new thread. If you open it to check it - whoof, there you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted June 4, 2006 Author Share Posted June 4, 2006 Fair enough. It's just I don't recall looking at them more than once each, twice at most. Memory's obviously worse than I thought!Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
