when i try to write a pm, i get this message:

is private messaging turned off at all?

it is only available to contributing members. feel free to donate a small sum to support linuxquestions.org and recieve this functionality.

okay, i understand! i would like to donate, but i'm a student operating on an edge, to say it like this. so pm in this forum needs to wait a couple of years...

best regards

Maybe we should get Jeremy to modify the page that members are redirected to when they don't have the access to do PM's, explaining these reasons, then it would most likely keep this question from arising in the future.

that's okay, no reason to stand out!

and i will donate later with pleasure...!
