Guest Steve Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Soooo embarrassed to ask this, but how do you PM someone? Is it built into the forum or outside of it? (I'm expecting a full-on Doh! moment here...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Type-R Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) At the top of the screen below the EMS logo there is an envolope, that is the PM section, click that and top right should be an option to create new pm. Just start to type the name of the person you want to pm (user name not real name), cc anybody and then type your message in the relevent section, hit send. Jobs a gud un!

Daz Type-R Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I thought that function had been turned off ages ago, but saying that, we have moved hosts recently and had a forum upgrade. I have PM'd Craig (the webmaster) on your behalf, he will let us know if there is a post count limit or some funcionality that has been turned back on. Someone will let you know (either Craig or myself). Regards, Daz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz Type-R Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 No probs Steve. Just to confirm anyway, Craig has said there is a limit due to spam bots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Hello, Sorry I didn't see this. Yes a limit is imposed, to prevent unwanted messages being sent to members. It's not hard to get access, as you've found. Hope you're enjoying the forums! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
