PVT MSGing out of order ?

I don't get to post as often as I like but I do a lot of reading now and then, so I may have missed a change around here that answers this but ...

Inside my UserCP when I like on Private Messaging I get the following ...

You do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1) You do not have permission to access the page that you were trying to. Are you trying to edit someone else's post or trying to access administrative features? Check that you are allowed to perform this action in the Forum Rules.

2) If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Any idea why it would not understand like that?

Just thought I would mention that everything else works fine.

That's only a feature for contributing members. I think further down you can find out all about that.

Cool

Yup... They're pretty useful allright. But then again, if ppl (there I go

) want to use short words, let them, as long as they don't go into full-blown data compression, when this:

Quote:

A fat cat sat on the mat. "My redhat doesn't work!", said the fat cat, and lied down on the mat.

(96 bytes) becomes this:

Quote:

%at
A f% c% s% on the m%. "My redh% doesn't work!", said the f% c%, and lied on the m%.

(88 bytes)... Hmmm, not a very good compression algorithm, is it?

Sorry, couldnt help but goof off a bit... I really need a vacation!
