Condor Posted September 11, 2008 #1 Posted September 11, 2008 Since the new format has been added to our CP file I'm finding that everyone is posting visitor messages anytime they want to get in touch with me, and since I don't visit my profile that much they don't get a response for some time. Besides that they are a PITA to get rid of, and the system won't allow a message to be completely deleted. Visitors are given a choice but the VM is the top selection and get's picked almost exclusively. The old PM worked just fine. Who thought up this thing anywho?? Talk about user unfriendly!!!!!!
Freebird Posted September 11, 2008 #2 Posted September 11, 2008 HEY...guess what...I agree completely. Not only that but I sometimes get tech questions posted there that I often don't see for a while because I don't check that often. Anyway, I just disabled that feature completely. The old messages will still be there unless you delete them like I just did all of mine.
Carbon_One Posted September 11, 2008 #3 Posted September 11, 2008 Thanks for removing that feature Don. Many times someone would try to contact me there and like you wouldn't see it for some time. I like the standard pm system much better Larry
mini-muffin Posted September 11, 2008 #4 Posted September 11, 2008 Thanks Don. I didn't know what to do with the messages as they piled up. Margaret

Rocket Posted September 11, 2008 #6 Posted September 11, 2008 Anyway, I just disabled that feature completely. The old messages will still be there unless you delete them like I just did all of mine. Only with mine it showed only the "soft delete" option & still shows that a bunch of messages were deleted.
mini-muffin Posted September 11, 2008 #7 Posted September 11, 2008 Me too. Is there a way to get rid of the whole thing? Margaret
Mariner Fan Posted September 11, 2008 #8 Posted September 11, 2008 Only with mine it showed only the "soft delete" option & still shows that a bunch of messages were deleted. Same here. It didn't give me the option to remove them completely.
Freebird Posted September 11, 2008 #9 Posted September 11, 2008 OK...I didn't know it but I have to do the physical remove. They should be gone now.
bongobobny Posted September 11, 2008 #10 Posted September 11, 2008 I didn't really like the VM's either. Missed a few messages until I finally looked at them...
mini-muffin Posted September 11, 2008 #11 Posted September 11, 2008 They are gone. Thanks Boss. Margaret
krome rose Posted September 11, 2008 #12 Posted September 11, 2008 Mini, I just keep posting after you today! I would check out a new member's profile and feel bad for not leaving a message since it listed that I was there. Thanks for removing it. Brandy
