Hi Carol,

Thanks. Hopefully she will.
She hasn't re-visited her post on the other site either.
As I say she's an older lady trying her best to make contact, and despite me trying my best to reach her I suppose that will have to be that.
It is clearly remiss of her to try using Rootschat, and worst of all to fail to complete three posts.

Regards

Andrew

I am new to Rootschat having joined today. Reading through everything (a bit min d boggling!) I read this thread. Does it mean that PM can only used once three posts have been done?

Thank you that is helpful.
Am looking forward to becoming part of the 'Roots' community. Don;t know why I didn't join before!
Just one last query when you reply to a PM do you put your user name on sign off or real name?

Hi and welcome to Rootschat!

Using either is completely up to you.

Happy hunting  ;D

I can't send a pm at all? I can't even find the PM button. Does anyone have an idea?

You have to make 3 posts before the PM system is available to you!
It's to stop spammers, I think.

Anyway, on the left, under each poster's details, is a green scrolly thing.
You click on that to get started!

So now just make another couple of posts. ;D
