Sometimes it takes several attempts at log in before you can post something. You cannot quote with names, as in "Johno wrote:..." And now my private message does not leave the outbox.

What is going on? I understand this site costs $2000 a year to run (while the Net is full of advertisements of hosting for less than $10 a month). Why the discrepancy, paying over ten times more and having so many bugs?

I think PMs stay in your outbox until the recipient opens them. We can test it if you wanna.

I got it. It works in a strange way - I would expect it to rather be in the "Sent Messages" folder. But as long as it works I am happy. Thanks for clarifying it.

I've had the same problem with having to log-in multiple times and then getting booted out after trying to post and taken to the log-in page to have to log-in again. Don't know about the PMs.

I like this better.

Ths way, if you “accidentally” send drunk dick pics to FatCat, you can always delete the message before he reads it and faps to it. :finga:
