<< yep, its official, i'm a pathetic loser. >>


Well if you're from florida you could challenge the results and drag it out for a few more months but the writing on the wall looks pretty clear tho. 😉

PM's are a must for fs/ft board when you want to buy something or lowball someone on a price...😀...otherwise I don't use them or get them much.

i'm sure there are some hanging ballots somewhere. some senior citizens probably couldn't click hard enough. internet explorer can be tricky sometimes.




who am i kidding, i'm from kentucky.
 


<< and doesn't anand offer a way to upgrade to allowing more pms? >>

No, I don't think Anand actually wants more P.M.S. here at AT. There's plenty of it. Take a look at a couple of Red Dawn's dribblings.

well i can't say i've never received a pm anymore. ive gotten 10 in the last ten hours. which is 1000% more than before. although some are a bit strange.

running a pyramid scheme are we? 🙂

 
Yeah, if you ever been in the FS/FT forum you'll be doing PM's like crazy. Too many to keep up with... Now that I haven't been to the FS/FT forum for like a year (I'm too poor.. *cry*) I haven't gotten a PM in the longest time.
 
I use it everyday. It makes buying/selling on the forums much easier. The subscription price is worth it just for the 1000 PM limit if you buy/sell a lot.
 
Yeah PM's are oft used for trading in FS/T but they are also useful for communicating with members you feel like biting their heads off for saying something you disagree with or telling them some comment that isn't relevant in the thread. When it gets personal, it's an appropriate alternative to crapping or name-calling in a thread. 🙂

Someone's been watching Little Rascals. 🙂 PM's are handy, I use them, and get them, but only for short communications. For longer stuff, I revert to email and IM.

LOL, some of the best entertainment value in particular threads is the crosstalk in pm 😀
 


<< If it weren't for PMs, Tex and Elledan would never have become such close friends. 😀 >>





Hahahahahaha !!!!

id say i have discussions via pm with about 3 people a week or so.

*kat. <-- just did something evil to a friend. buwhahahahaha
 
When I saw that eakers had posted here, I though maybe she was going to offer to have you be her secretary, handle all the lame PM's she gets from the jr highers here, and then you'd get all the PM's you want! 😉 *me waves* Hi eakers!
