    Hi,
    For some reason my private messages can't be tracked anymore. Has this feature been disabled? I checked my user options and the box for tracking PM's is ticked. I tried deleting a few reports and the new ones I send still don't get tracked. Any ideas?

    Also, my sig (link if it's removed again) was removed for some reason, it fits in with all the rules at www.boards.ie/sigrules which I looked at before changing it, I've put it back uncentred this time, perhaps it being in the centre was the problem? I'm not too sure who to contact about this as it abides by all the rules. I wasn't warned that it was in violation, it says people in violation will be PM'd being asked to change it, so I don't know what's breaking the rules.

    :confused:

    Any feedback appreciated:)

    Tracking is opt-in now, you have to specifically check the box under the editor before you send a message to have it tracked, as opposed to the old way of the javascript prompt.

    I don't believe commercial advertising is permitted.

    Ooops, I missed that:o I also just checked the user options and that checkbox I was talking about doesn't exist! I think I got it confused with the "enable private messages" checkbox:rolleyes:

    There's commercial advertising in signatures all over boards though, especially in the poker forum. I've posted a thread in the Help Desk so hopefully I'll get some feedback from Admins on the situation:)

    Thanks for the feedback everyone:)
