HELP from Admin needed please

Post by David229 »

For some reason my messages are not being sent out of my "outbox". Can I get some help with this. I even tried emailing a Mod but that would not go either. Thanks.

David,

My understanding is until the person you sent the PM to logs in or maybe even checks thier messages the PM will sit in your outbox.

So if they haven't logged in or checked thier PM's it is completly within reason for the messages to stay in the outbox.

Hope this helps a little.

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.

Lower Rating ships/pays first.

Oh! I hope that's true. But I'm working on a few trades, so I'd think they would be logging in to check on it?

You never know.

Feel free to PM me to test if they're working though.

David,

It's hit or miss sometimes. I have some PM's that have been sitting in my outbox for 3 or more MONTHS. You can also check when the last time the trader had logged in by clicking on their username in your PM's.

For some folks Bartertown isn't an obsession and they only show up occasionally. I can't understand it, but it happens. ;)

Thanks everyone for your help and assistance. After a test with insidius, it looks like I have to wait for them to sign in before the message will leave the "outbox".

Thanks.

No.
That is incorrect.

You have tow ait for them to OPEN the PM before it leaves your outbox.
There's a difference.
