How Long?

[Teach]

How long does it take for the probation period here to end and I get full privileges. I contacted the "contact us" folks and was told they don't give out the privilege of private messaging between members until they have established that the "new" person is not a dealer hoping to spam the forums - understandable.......nobody wants that.

I have questions for individual members and their areas that are not appropriate for the forum postings and therefor would be best communicated in a private message to that person.

When will I be able to do so? Thanks you all. Yawl been great!

i think you're dead on joel.....
i remember all the fuss last year.... we had members that had been tken to the cleaners.... by a fellow doing trades and not returning the detectors.... then selling a too good to be true machine.... and not delivering the goods..... he had several diffrent user names..... and was on many diffrent forums...... i've Noticed there isin't anyone getting ripped off this year..... so i would assume.... the new rules that the owner's put in place.... have done their job..... or..... sombody caught that no good lilly livered poll cat ( can i say that? )

Sad that peeps got taken like that.

Hey I just saw something new. There is now a "send a message" link beside your names that wasn't there before. Hey maybe this squeeky wheel just got some oil! Looks like I now have the capability to send a pm. Cool.
