Title: Private Message Questions
Post by: amkluttz on September 14, 2012, 07:02:47 PM
I am fairly new to the board and have been lurking a while.  Has been greatly helpful in working on my GS.

That said I have recently been sending PM's back and forth between another board member and myself.  My question is...

Why does the PM feature give me the third degree every time I send a message?  Is this standard for every PM or is it because I'm new?  It asks three questions every time.  Also, any question that has an answer with the value of zero (0) tells me that I am wrong every time.

I did try to search but I didn't come up with much.

Thanks,

-Andy

Until you have more postings (maybe 10?) you go through torture. I believ it is there to prevent spammers from logging on one time then spamming everyone.

Make lots of posts. We prefer pictures so post pictures. The CAT thread is fin if you like cats (or don't)

anyway, more postings. Let us know what happens after post #10.

Yeah, find a cat meme and chuck it in the cat thread  to build up your post count. Make 10 posts and try again.

you got to pass the minimum threshold to send PM's... sorry about that. But we had an idiot that spammed 'goatse' to almost everybody a few years back, took me to take down the server and manually delete all entries in teh PM box.

oye indeed  :oops: apologies. to sum up the thread jacking, those that wish to see  certain persons, with certain antics that certainly cannot be unseen, can certainly search for those people via a certain search engine, and end up with a CERTAIN WTFH in their minds. i will bow out of this threadjack now and attempt to get it back on track

To be fair to those that assisted in the threadjacking, OP got an answer to his question before the threadjacking took place. The threadjack was an offshoot related to the reason behind the answer to OP's question.  :cool:

To the OP - this type of thing seems to happen around here often, which you probably figured out just by lurking. It's almost always in good fun, but sometimes it gets carried away and/or heated, thus losing the integrity of the original thread.

I feel it's unforgivable if the thread gets jacked prior to seeing a valid answer to a question raised by the OP. In this case, though, I don't see a problem with this threadjacking instance. IMHO

I just checked on responses to my posts.  Wow, I had no idea this one got that popular.  No harm done, I found my answer and I got a laugh when I checked back here.

Goatse is nothing after you see One Guy - One Jar. Just sayin'.

Even if it is probably fake...that is the most disturbing shaZam! I have -ever- seen.
