OK, I have an embarrassing question... When I get a PM from someone here should I send a reply from the original message that I got or should I go to the link that it contains and send an answer through a new "PM" or "Email"? Someone clear this up for me please.

I always send a reply from the original PM message I received.

Doug, are you referring to the email notice of the PM?
If so, reply from the link. If not, disregard this message. |

Oops, I got some typing to do then. I replied from the original notice on most of the latest ones I gotten (about items I'm selling)..

I replied from the original notice on most of the latest ones I gotten (about items I'm selling).. if you're replying to the 914club email you're getting that says that you have a new PM, your reply is going to be lost in space. this is just a notification email for this BBS, NOT a personal email from whoever has send you a PM. you have to use the link in that email which will open up a browser with the PM in question and you then reply there ... btw. nice work sean! later, Andy |

OK, but if it says it's an "email" as opposed to a "PM", then I should reply directly from there right? - because the link is only to the entire forum and not a specific message. Hope I got it right..

This is what it looks like if you received an email from the board:
It will say Email in it. Attached image(s) |

Nice job on the FAQ's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
but I don't have the option to "CC" a message (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Do I have to pay more to become a "Gold" member (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
