squirtgun 122 Report post Posted August 9, 2004 On the old format weren't we able to view public profiles?I think this is also how I used to PM other members(by view their profile). I know some BBS have features blocked.I can see a reason for that if the PM feature is being abused or if someone is harvesting emails etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 One Tough Pressure 580 Report post Posted August 9, 2004 If you click on the persons avatar you will get a restricted message. If you click on the user name it will give you a list of a few items such as PM, email etc. Yes the user list is blocked at this time, but you can still send PM and email if that user has it turned on.

0 squirtgun 122 Report post Posted August 9, 2004 Thanks Alan...the problem I found with that is if the member isn't online,I have to search for an old post to do any of the things you mentioned.If they are a lurker and not a poster there is basically no way to send a message to someone.

0 One Tough Pressure 580 Report post Posted August 10, 2004 If they have never posted then you are up a creek. You should be able to do a search for them if they have posted and make it a little easier to find them. If you know that they read the bbs, then you can post a message in the Club House with their name in the subject, asking them to email you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
