PMs ... wat da ... ?

So ... do ya gotta be special or something to read PMs?

Once upon a time I had 3 unread messages.

So I clicky on the linky, and find that I have 0 messages.

back to home page;- 3 Unread messages again.

After repeating this a few times, I send off a "help me please"

I get a reply from "Lamkint" rofl... "What's your username?"

I send the appropriate answer, (not bothering to remind the poor fellow that username is easily accessed from the memberlist simply by entering the email addy and then "search" ... can be done C&P ... done it many times on other forums)

Anyway... the problem now appears solved - good work Lamkint ... got no messages at all now!

So ... Anybody who sent me a PM ... ya wanna have another go? email it this time tho ... lol

I don't think you had any messages.. There is a problem with miss reporting PM messages counts.. There was a thread on it somewhere..

You only have 17 posts so the PM system doesn't work until you hit 26.. Then we see the option and can pm you..

Hope this helps...

Well, EdG60 seems like a friendly kinda feller. Should do well here.

I wonder if he is on Lamkin's good buddy list now?
