Help!
I am trying to be a dutiful member of Bartertown, responding quickly to all inquiries about some figures I posted for trade.
Yet for some reason, most of these posts are stuck -for a long time, it seems - in my outbox. In fact, they are starting to pile up in there.
Why is this happening? Can I do anything about it? Please help.
thanks
- Ken

Re: Replies stuck in Outbox!!
Replies stay in your outbox until the recipient reads them, at which time they move from your outbox. Sounds like they are not being read by the respective people you are sending them to.

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

If it's been more than 2 or 3 days, drop it and move on. Something's wrong with the other guy, or with you.gavster wrote:yeh dave hit that one on the head straight away

Either he asked for email and you overlooked that detail, or he's just not checking his PM's responsibly.
