Question: Technical question

[AdrianD]

I fear that there is something wrong with my messaging. Ive messaged a few people and they reply with it saying it came in blank. Wondering who I need to talk to about this?

Check your sent box. In the messages you sent, is there anything written, or is it also blank?

I dont have any sent messages

[AdrianD]

I am still having issues with messages receiving and going out blank. Is there something that can be done about this?

One thing way to ride my thread. gj. 2. Make sure you know which topic you think it belongs in then find the box in the upper left of all the threads that says 'New Thread'

Hello Zereul, first off, there's a button for you to click in any forums you want to. This is it -->

Click it & you can create a new thread. Hope this helped.

Please don't double post or go off-topic, guys.

Anyways, mind detailing what sort of messages you are trying to send to people? (PM or VM for instance)? Would probably be of more use to any staff that can check out that issue. More details the better on what you are trying/how.

I think the issue is that they're not seeing any messages in their Sent box for their PMs, and they think that means they're messages aren't going out. The reason for this is a User CP setting that's turned off by default when you join, and this setting saves messages you send to others in your Sent mailbox, but I don't remember where in the User CP you go to turn it on. Oh, wait, never mind. I found it.

OKAY, AdrianD, open the main page of the forum in a new tab, then click on User CP in the upper left-hand corner, and in the drop-down menu that appears, click on "Edit Options". On the page that this opens, scroll down to the middle of the "Messaging & Notification" box on the right-hand side of the page. In view should be a smaller box inside that one titled "Private Messaging". In order to have messages you send save to your Sent box, the last checkbox in this box needs to be checked. It should say something like "Save a copy of sent messages in my Sent Items folder by default". If it is not checked, click the checkbox to check it. Then, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click "Save Changes" to make this change apply to your settings. Then, send me a private message, and then check your "Sent Items" box. I will let you know if I actually received it by replying to your message. Though how long you'll have to wait for a reply will depend on how soon from now you send it.

If this doesn't fix the issues you're having, then we'll need to know more details about your problem.

PMs When I send them they wind up being blank sometimes. Other times I put it in the middle of a quote *facepalm* But more often its blank
