The day has finally arrived....PMs Now Functioning.

wilheim · Sep 2, 2008

Sometime tonight Rx Tech Support will enable PMs for the site. Check under FAQs for instructions on how to use them.

What is Private Messaging?

FYI - only registered posters will have access to PMs, that excludes posters on Post Review and all Banned posters..

I am appealing to all loyal Rxers to please report any shils, spammers or any poster who you feel is up to no good to me at person19481950@yahoo.com. Please title the email "PM Protocol Violator" or something similar.

Posters who abuse the PM system will be excluded from using it on a case be case basis. Straight out touts soliciting business for example will be banned immediately. Posters spamming other posters after being asked to stop will be placed on post review. Each case will be judged on it's own merit, both pro and con.

Please let me know if other forums try to recruit you to leave the Rx.com and join them at their forum. I don't expect this to happen but if it does I would very much appreciate a heads up.

Whenever you email me please include your own poster name, the User name of the offending poster and kindly cut and paste the offending PM to the email.

I am counting on you posters to make this PM system work here at The Rx.com.

I will try to answer questions if you post them in this thread.

Thanks and enjoy the new PM feature, wil...:aktion033

I will atleast in my own mind take some credit for this since i made the thread last month asking why there was no pms and got the topic going d1g1t

I don't like the idea of PMs

anyone else feel the scammers already?

I will admit many useless threads will hopefully be eliminated now.

Yes you do but to be honest, I will have been a moderator here for 5 years in December and PMs has been a sore subject since before I was originally hired. There have been countless threads about why we don't have PMs over the years.

If shdw01 is right it only takes around 5 or so minutes to disable the function. I hope that will not be necessary of course.

The Rx is just trying to make the site as good as it can be for you the posters.

Good Move My Man Now If You'll

just extend the edit time on posts. I don't think 5 mins. is enough. Actually I don't think it even gets to 5. How about 10?

Personally, I like it at 5, but I guess it is no big deal.

Wil- How do we go about reporting spam to you?

How about if I add two minutes to the five you already have. The real reason for the time limit is past posting. Not so much here in the Offshore Forum but in the sport forums where cappers can make an edit off or on a play if there is an early score.

Now can we get some AM's. Also is there going to be a limit to how many PM's a user can make. I know some web siite limit the use.

4) Will porn links be allowed in PMs?

FairWarning · Sep 2, 2008

Doug · Sep 2, 2008

Links themselves are OK but if you link the wrong person with something real raunchy you might get reported.
