I've gotten random PMs from people (new members I guess) who have joined but are asking ME why they can't post or asking how to post. I guess they don't realize you have to be a paying member to post....

Anyone else getting weird random PMs like this??

I think it would be nice if it was posted in a more conspicuous place for the new members to see what is what around here.

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    The only random PM I got was from chick trying to hook up with me. I thought I was special until 27 other people posted that she contacted them too, with the same message.

    Maybe some of them asking how to post were from the old board and you didn't recognize them with the letter/number name convention. I dunno.

    nope, they said they just signed up and asked how to post.
    I explained the whole concept of being a 10c member to post.

    Yes. I've gotten a few strange PMs from people I don't know.

    I wonder why I've been selected for their questions. :shock:

    LOL..that gave me a chuckle....

    I haven't gotten any pms like that CIW..I think some people don't realize you have to be a fanclub member to post.
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    what did I tell you yesterday? the person who writes to me is really nice but won't tell me what their name was on the old board and she says she can't find the reply button. she takes a reply in a thread and instead of replying, she pm's me.

    you never know whom you are talking to in a random pm.

    it could be a member of pearl jam in disguise :D

    Yes, that's how I got the pm too. He/she/they are friendly in the messages but it's still weird.

    I would say that she can't see the reply button b/c she has not paid her membership.

    This is about another private message sender: if you get a pm asking you for a date and she gives you her email address and says to exchange pics, I think she is in business for herself (if you catch my drift.) I would report their username to the Admins on here.

    I'd like it to be that case. And whoever is nice and helps them out in a nice manner wins the front row lottery tickets at the next tour! :lol:
