I dont know if this has been brought to anyones attention or not, but I"m noticing that the PM system on this site is extremely frustrating. What I mean by this is, on other sites, when you''ve got a new PM, it will show a number where its something like You have 1 new message, or a number next to the inbox word that says Inbox (1) or something like this.

here this isnt the case. hell I''m not even recieving the PM popup notifying me of a new message half the time, NOR was I recieving the email when I had that activated.

I find this excessively irritating, considering most other forums you can get a message and it shows at least a number or something on the page indicating you''ve got a PM.

thats good. I figured out the email notification issue. I was lookin at wrong email, but still the software we''re on SUCKS BALLS. I''d call it 1990''s tech at best.

I think you should ask for your money back.

PM system is the one aspect of this board that does function correctly. I get a bazillion PMs a day along with e-mails saying I got a PM then I log in and get a pop-up saying I got a PM. So if it ain''t working for you ....

Just kiddin ... we are all anxiously awaiting our upgrade ... until then please refrain from mentioning sucking balls ... it just gets us too excited.

Hey... PlayfulGod

There is nothin wrong with ASP mate ... that setting the friggin script on fire would''t fix ..

With all the PHP scripts available ... gee make''s one wonder why the fu^^^k they used it to start with .. its not like this board was setup too long ago or anything ....

Patients is a virtue they say mate ..... but..

If I wanted to be a patient person .. I would book into the nearest hospital

Aussies are funny. My small, humble hope is that the Search function gains improvement with the upgrade. I expect that it will, so I shall make no mention of balls, or the sucking thereof. Thank you.
