Anyone else fed up with the PM system at the moment.? I used to get an e mail telling me I had a PM, I would click on it and get taken straight in to the PM. Now, if it even comes through in time I click on it and then have to log in all over again, even though I am actually on the boards at the time.
If, instead I click on the white envelope, after about five tries I might get taken to the PM board. Previously I would then click on the name of the sender and get taken to the message, now I get some rigmarole about tree connections. To go straight to the message I have to remember to click on the subject. it is nothing major but all very very aggravating. And then the white envelop stays up and I don't know if that is because it has not been cancelled or if there is a further message.

Getting used to it ... and that it says it is from me, though isn't really :-)

I don't have the first problem (I am on the SA site I think... or is that NZ?) but the white envelope.... grrrrr! It has been playing up... I now have it, but have just answered all my pm's, As soon as I get another, it will go out. Ho Hum... and I am tired of being notified that I have sent myself a pm... but GR did respond to my query to say that they were aware and working on it.

Oh... and I have the bouncy reply box back..... grr.... it is a real so and so to try to stick words to.....

Yes, the jumping and bouncing is a pain ...

And, I used to be able to click onto a message notification from GR and then come straight onto the boards - can't do that now. All my message notifications say they are from me - and when I click on one I have to sign in.

And the white envelope is doing my head in. If I send a message I get put into Sent Messages and until the recipient opens the message the little white envelope shows! What's that about?

grrrr.

Apart from that, it's all tickety-boo!

Glad it isn't just me. I am on NZ site too Daff. But don't have a bouncy reply box.

And still the white envelope shows for ages!

And still the site is jumping around.

I used to get the jumping and there was a box at the end of the address bar to correct it.Looked like a bolt of lightning.
One of the items in your toolbar page/safety/tools will have;
compatibility view settings
tick;display all websites in compatability view.

When I clicked on my e-mail page this morning, it said I had two PM's. Went to the PM facility, and I had infact three.
Still no white envelope to denote I have incoming PM's, despite bringing it to GR's attention. I have to periodically through the day click on messages to see if there are any.
What a flippin' shambles this site is becoming.

My notification e-mails are now telling me who pm's are from as it should... the white envelope is still a little bit dodgy... sometimes shows for a long time after I have answered all of them... and as I am getting lots at the moment, I am in and out like a yo yo...

And I have now started to get the contact history when I click on a pm... so reading them is a bit slower.... BUT... as I have a load at the moment, I am finding it very useful to have that history in front of me each time I click... so a tentative bonus.

My reply box still jumps up and down like a 5 year old on a trampoline... but not all the time.

I expect it will settle down once the tweaking has finished. *sighs* I do wish we could have a warning, though.... so many of us seem to be told that WE have the problem, at first.... it would save a lot of time and fiddling with stuff..... really it would!!

Or it would save the lives aof a few poor pc's and laptops from being chucked out the window and murdered in frustration ;¬))

Mine are still from me :-))))))

Jumping only happens with this site, and has only occurred in the last week, so I won't change anything on the computer just for this site :-)


And some contacts have returned that I didn't want!

Daff, if you don't want to read the contact history click on the subject not the name and it will take you straight into the PM.

I don't know id my e mails have changed because Billy no mates here hasn't had a message since yesterday.

all i want for xmas is me pm box to light up when i got mail.now that would be well cool.i end up replying to mail weeks later .

They are no longer from me :-)

... but the white box still shows

Ann, I do!!! But it still takes me into the contact bit for that person......

I shall go and send you a pm, lolol....... bless!!!

When I clicked on the subject line on the right of your name Daff, it took me straight into your message.

The e mail prompt has still not come through Lol!!!!

Maybe I won't get an e mail as I have already opened the message??????

e mail for latest message came through with the correct sender on it.

Unable to send them now - this appeared
