I received a PM from someone and I would like to reply to her.  It says "You are not allowed to send personal messages."  How do I change this?
Thanks
Brent

To prevent trolling I think you have to post three times before you can send a PM.

dach is correct. you need to post at least once more before you will be able to send messages.  This is a rule to prevent spamming of the forums by people trying to sell junk 'cures'.

Post one more time and you will be able to respond.

hi,

Welcome to the forums. You should post in the living with HIV section. You will get more response from the wonderful people here.

I have 3 questions
When I changed my avatar to Mr. Peabody and Sherman, It took 3 days to load on my home computer. And even then it was half the pic. While the pc at work had the whole photo. Why is that?
I changed the order of posts so I can read the last response instead of having to scroll down. Well everyday the order is different. Some days I get the opening post with responses following and then another day I get the last one- don't know which way I am going. Why is that?
 And last, I notice people put pics in their post which other respond to, such as the "Are My Jeans too Tight" thread yet I don't get the photo, either at home or on the work computer.
Why is that?

I had the same question as Brent, so I guess I have to write one more message to activate my PM reply feature.  This is such hard work, hombre!!!

Hi Johnny,

It sounds to me like maybe you have a lot of security measures on your computer(s). The preferences that you choose are enabled via cookies - are you set to delete cookies when you end your internet session? The photo issue sounds like a firewall issue. I don't know what else to suggest, other than explore these possibilities.

Good luck!

Hi Razorback...

I think your post is in the wrong thread.  This one seems to be about technical issues with the new board, if I am not mistaken.  You may want to post your question in its own thread under "Living with HIV".  Also, if you are a Razorback and living in Arkansas, there has just been some news about foster parenting in your state that might be relevant to your issue.  Can anyone here help out with this issue?

I haven't seen that but I suspect it relates to some moderator activity.  I have seen when viewing the list of member and what they are looking at the tim or peter occasionally appear for their 'action' as 'hidden -nothing you can see or that I don't want you to" or something to that affect.

Um... it was me. I only discovered, in my profile, the option to hide my online status the other day, but it's not a lot of use if the software announces to the world that there is a hidden moderator snooping about. LOL How silly is that? ;D

I've gone back to normal status now.
