    Rat,
    Please accept my apology. I heard from "Admin" about sending unsolicited PMs. It won't happen again. Lesson learned, moving on!

    Spin how long have you been with Roehl. They are near the top of my list to go to.

    Huh... that's too bad. It's not like he hammered the entire membership when he sent his PM's out. I wouldn't have known about this thread if he hadn't. I don't see how a PM can be solicited. No harm no foul.

    No, Private Messages do not have to be solicited, it was poor word choice and explanation on my part. The thread starter sent several dozen users a generic PM asking them to comment on his thread, and that's not what the PM system is intended for. I think it's obvious that this behavior is frowned upon, I'm not going to start publishing rules about how people can and can't use PM's. Be respectful, golden rule, yada yada yada

    I'm glad to hear that you didn't mind it, but a number of users contacted me to complain, and I certainly understand their being annoyed. If it became routine for people to shoot out 50 PM's to members that they have no prior connection to in order to get a few of them to post on a thread, I can't imagine that anyone wouldn't be annoyed. We're nipping it in the bud, I don't see a reason to make an issue out of it.
     
    Lonesome and Gears Thank this.

    Gottcha!
    That makes sense. I didn't know that many PM's were sent. Thanks for the clarification!

    Hey Gears,
    I did screw up. I didn't know I was doing it but I have to "own up". Thanks for your support.

    Schneider is a late entry to the poll but has already tied with Werner. Roehl continues to enjoy an impressive lead. Who can compete with them? I love any suggestions!

    Kind of late to add to the lists after people already voted to the poll.
