I want to get my "illegal" user name" repaired, i.e, simply remove the "-." Everyone says to PM a Moderator. How? The PM tab provides no way to do that other than to type in a name and send. This FuseTalk really sucks.

Direct link to send a private message to user Anandtech Moderator found here (works in most non-IE browsers). Entire thread on the subject found here.

Whenever I have to send a PM, I have to get out of Mozilla and open IE. Mozilla doesn't have the 'SEND' button for some reason.

notice the lack of a 'SEND' option in the screenshot.


We went over this many moons ago. Not sure why it's not being addressed.

The name of the moderators for messaging purposes is "Anandtech Moderator". I guess all the mods have access to those messages and the first mod to read a message takes care of it.

The secret is to pretend you are highlighting someone outside of the text box. Pull the mouse down and you should be able to see the send button. Atleast, that's how I remember doing it.

EDIT: Actually it's working just fine in Mozilla. :p
