    Couple of people PMed me in the past days, but since my posts number was below 50, I couldn't reply, so I wanted to apologize :)

    I just reached 50 posts, so I'll have better manners :)


    BTW (this is for this board staff)
    I can see PM limits on many boards and it makes sense to me, but on all other boards, that limit (50 posts) doesn't apply to replies.
    I mean, if someone PM you, you can reply, even if you have just 1 post.
    It makes sense to me.

    You mean that on the other sites, you can respond but not initiate?

    As you can see, we aren't like all other boards...we are special. :-D

    It's for spam purposes and the owners chose the 50 posts for both send and receive. I don't see that changing at any point. When one of us has to get in touch with a new member, we also give an email address so the person can respond. There is also a way to get a hold of the site owners for anyone who feels they need to: http://www.majorgeeks.com/faqshow.php?id=1

    And Laura is correct.
    We are special.

    Just to state what may not be the obvious, we prefer that people do not use PM's to provide technical assisstance to other members. It is what the forums are for. :major

    Fair enough :)

    And to the ones who PMed me in the past couple of weeks, that's why you didn't get a response. Use the forums, so others can see the solution. :)

    Those PMs were totally private, not computer related.

    Unfortunately, not all forum sites are like that. :confused
    This other site that I am a member of allows you to PM each other for solutions and you can PM from the first post.
    I believe that the site here is much better maintained and handled.

    I didn't mean to single anyone out or point fingers. Apologies to everyone reading this if I did.
