Ziroc and anyone else, I am having a problem

Reeka · 04-12-2003, 05:48 PM

I can't send PM's. It keeps timing me out. Is this just a problem I am having? I'm getting PMs. Am I doing something wrong? Help!

Djinn Raffo · 04-12-2003, 05:58 PM

I get that whenever i tried to send one. I close the window and re open up and go back to the profile and it says they have been sent so.. i guess they went..

andrewas · 04-12-2003, 06:04 PM

I believe the timeout message refers to the notification email, not the PM. So the PM gets sent.

Incidently, did anyone else have a 20 minute glitch on IW a few hours ago? It looked exactly like the failure last week, except I could get in using the opera browser, only IE was affected.

They are sent, even though it times out. Oddly, this only happens to PMs sent from the 'my profile' screen, not when you click the 'PM' button above someone's post (in which case you return to the topic as normal after sending it).

i also seem to get this (the pms) ... kinda irritating but i thought i was the only one who had that kind of a problem.

Reeka · 04-12-2003, 06:23 PM

Thanks, guys, it did get sent. That is very strange. I guess it is a glitch in the software or something.

Luvian · 04-12-2003, 07:23 PM

You guys don't send pms very often if you just found out about this bug. It's been like that for as long as I can remember.

Ziroc has been working this for some time. That's why he sometime close the forum at night. Hopefully he will be able to fix this soon.

I usually count to 10 after submitting, then hitting refresh. It will give some warning about not responding until the recipient has responded back...but just click on "my profile" again.
