If you have somebody on ignore

[A-Schwarzenegger]

and they send you a PM, I know it doesnt
show up in your PM box, but do you get an enail
from admin saying you got a PM, even though the
PM itself won't be there? Cuz I got a couple PM
notices in my email, but nothing showed up in my
PM box, so that's all I could figure. Unless it was
a glitch?

1. no

admins have better things to do

and, you really should not be posting this in public, a simple email to the admins will suffice

[A-Schwarzenegger]

3. It's an autoresponse from the admins.

If there's a mod that wants to take care of it,
theyll take care of it. But thanks, Mom.

2. Get a life

:rofl:

[A-Schwarzenegger]

4. I must know if somebody & if so who PMd me.

Maybe it will lead to a lifelong internet friendship.

[Floogeldy]

7. In that case, you should put everybody on ignore

That is the only way you can figure this whole thing out.

B-)

[A-Schwarzenegger]

14. Oh my golly I think you've got it!

Did you say something?

[Floogeldy]

16. It's like when Spock was floating, lost, and burned all of the fuel . . .

. . . to attract attention to his shuttle craft.

It was the most illogical thing to do in a hopeless circumstance.

B-)

[A-Schwarzenegger]

19. Please dont mention DUers by name in an ignore thread.

You are going to get this locked.

[Floogeldy]

20. Sorry, A-Schwarzenegger

B-)

[A-Schwarzenegger]

22. Why, you ...

rackafratz.

[hfojvt]

27. except that Bones was with him

and when Spock said "well, I guess we are all going to die" Bones said "A while back you said there are always alternatives" and Spock considered that, raised his eyebrow and said "It seems I was mistaken" and Bones said "At least I lived long enough to hear that."

I think Scotty was with them too, and a couple other redshirts who did not get killed and one or two that did.

I got two emails as well, so what was that about? Message from the admins?

[progmom]

5. nope

you can't even send a PM if someone has you on ignore.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

8. Thank you, progmom.

That was simple.

[democracyindanger]

6. I got a notice about a PM today

but the last new PM was a couple days ago, and there was nothing new today.

I think grovelbot is just screwing around on the internets.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

10. Aha. So it was likely a glitch. Thank you also.

11. Catching up on missed advisories after the Memorial Day weekend server

problems maybe?

[FuzzySlippers]

21. That happened to me, too.

I got notified about a PM I didn't get notified about yesterday.

[Droopy]

9. I had the same thing happen to me

and I don't have anyone on ignore.

[Kire]

12. I got a DCForum Notification unexpectedly, too

just a little while ago, there was nothing new in my inbox,
but the date of the email was the same time as the last message in my inbox

I used to work for an isp, and once in a while one email would get sent to a customer over and over and over again, maybe Skinner needs to reset the servers

I'm going to alert them to this post, and up the flag pole it will go, if we're lucky, there will be a technical difficulty

BTW, anytime you bring up people on ignore and PMs in a public post, you're going to see what's under the surface

Dad

[A-Schwarzenegger]

17. Who people did I bring up?

Not that I can see what you just posted or anything.

[Kire]

25. the title of the thread says

"somebody on ignore"

[Kire]

24. self delete

self-delete

[Robeson]

13. I don't have anyone on ignore on this site, or.....

...any other I visit. Its just a "thang" with me. Sorry I can't help.

[Awsi Dooger]

26. I can't imagine putting someone on ignore

Especially here, since it's (presumably) a fellow Democrat.

But what the hell would I be afraid of, anyway? Some total stranger's internet opinion? IMO, that's prototype pathetic. Besides, someone could be an uninformed jerk in GD but be a howl in the Lounge and share your main interests.

[tyedyeto]

15. What's a PM

and how do you ignore someone? :shrug:

:sarcasm:

[alittlelark]

18. I'm on administrative 'ignore' w/ another high # poster.

I'm convinced he's a freep, and he's convinced I'm nuts.

Nothing involving IM's.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

23. Ooo, PM me who.

No I'm just kidding.
No I'm not.
Yes I am.
Maybe I am.
Maybe I'm not.

[Pithlet]

28. Probably a glitch. That happened to me.

I got two messages in my email yesterday about new inbox messages when I had none. For a second I thought it might have something to do with ignore, too. But, I tried to PM someone once when I didn't realize they had me on ignore (I don't know why, I don't remember ever having a nasty exchange with that person) and it flat out wouldn't let me PM them, so I don't see how it would generate an email.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

29. It was disconcerting

but I have since reconcerted.
