I'm a little confused here..

I went to my home page to check my quick messages, and there was a new one from a name I've never seen. She was asking for help, and I would love to help her, but I can't respond to her because I can't click on her name!! I honestly don't think she's a member of this forum, but how on earth did she manage to send a message then? Anyone else get anything like this?

Same thing happened to me!! Can guests do quick messages? I feel bad that I can't help this person, but there is no way to reach them!!

Guests are allowed to quick message you.Only way I know to narrow down where they are on the board is use search button.Do a advanced search based on username.We can add this to the to do list to work out for that feature.

I noticed I got a message in my e-mail saying I had a new "quick message", but when I went to the message, I had not one, but three! And the other two were older ones, which I never received any notification of in my e-mail. I hope it works soon...I would hate to miss someone's message if they need help or have a question.

I saw a button on my page that you could deselect to not allow guests to message you, if you prefer.

I've had the same thing happen, guests quick messaging and there's no way to respond to them. But then again, all they would need to do is register and we could all respond.

If guests ask for help in my homepage, I would copy the query and start a post in forum so that everybody can add comments there. Having such conversations in homepage won't help anybody. What do you say?

Kyside, you can reply to the users who sent you the messages. Just click on their username and go to their homepage. You will find a quick message box to post.

Or, leave the messages just like that.

You have the option to delete the messages you don't like. There's a button to disallow any guest postings. By default, it is set to yes. Uncheck it and guests won't be able to post.

There is no point in keeping the garbage. I noticed that guests who come here to attack make one common message and post it in different home pages. I feel they count how many messages they can post in one minute LOL. Just delete that non-sense.

How come sometimes when I post I see the quick message and other times I don't?
