Cossack emailed me his password.
I successfully logged in as him and sent a PM.

Either it's going to be WHAT you're trying to do, or an issue on your PC, I think.

Careful. You're being close to rude there.... you might want to check the rules on that.

Not true. I sent the one to me by just hitting the "reply" button.

How about this? Walk me through, step-by-step, the process you're using to send a message each way (manually typing, PM from a thread and using the reply button).
Maybe you're just doing something wrong.

In good humor:


Of course, you know, you're *never* going to live this down. Right?
I'm just waiting to see how many sig lines that shows up in. LOL

No worries, and no reason to apologize. It was an honest mistake.

Just intended to be light-hearted, hope it wasn't taken the wrong way! Glad to have a new trader join us :)
