Contacting NB

[nickbatzdorf]

I just noticed a couple of old PMs here again.If anyone needs to contact me, please use email: nb at VirtualInstrumentsMag dot com.I don't want to make it sound like everyone's always after me, but PM here isn't a good way to contact me - it just doesn't occur to me to check!Sorry about that.

Nick, I think you can set a preference to notify you via email anytime a PM shows up. It works like that for me, but I remember having to go look for that set up page.

I just looked, it's actually in the mail section, not the profile section. If you click on the link "hey nick, you have xxx messages", on the next screen you'll see preferences. Click that and that's where it is.Thanks for the heads up stick!Mazz

hey mazz,thanks for the tipp, I didn't know it!btw is there any possibility for notification if a new message has been posted in a thread I've started..?thx,martin

Martin, You just have to bookmark the thread, and set your prefs to notify you when someone posts on the thread you've bookmarked. It's tricky to find, because the link in hidden in the yellow bar... try this link and see if it works for you. You should be able to set it down at the bottom of the page. http://taxi.proboards27.com/index.cgi?a ... ookmarksIf that doesn't work, go to your profile, select Bookmarks. Then here's the tricky part: In the first yellow bar from the top, (it says "Bookmarks" on the left) roll your mouse over it near the right hand edge. It should change to the hand selector over the link. You can see it if you select the text too... for me it works to hit "Select All" anywhere on the page.

hey brian,thanks a lot for explaining, got it!I've never seen this system of bookmarks before on boards - I test it right now, I think it should work.thx,martin

Yeah, I knew it had to be there somewhere, as all the other boards I'm on automatically let me know when anyone's posted on a thread I've posted on. I guess the good thing with this system is that you don't have to actually post on a thread to get notifications, you can just hit the bookmark link.
