Hello, hoping this hasn't already been answered, and yes I did try looking thru here. I am trying to send a PM and it just sits in my outbox. What am I doing wrong? Do I have to have a minimum number of posts before I can PM Thanks!

It'll stay in your outbox until the receiver (the person you PM'd) reads it.

Then it's marked off your outbox...

So the person you sent it too... has not read it.
(well technically they also get an email... so they could of read it but on their email not on their PM within the site).

And it's a great way to know if someone is blowing you off.

When its time to go in:
That place of steel and stone. I pray that you will keep me safe, so I will not walk alone. Help me to do my duty, please watch me on my rounds.
Amongst those perilous places and slamming steel door sounds. God, keep my fellow Officers well and free from harm. Let them know I'll be there too, whenever there's alarm.
Above all when I walk my beat, no matter where I roam. Let me go back whence I came, to family and home

Sort of....

They are probably also getting e-mail notifications, and as Young mentioned they might just read it in the e-mail and leave the PM alone.

Was it a stupid question? Sorry but I thought I might be doing something wrong, so I asked the question.

No, it's not a stupid question; since the PM system works differently than Outlook or similar e-mail systems, it's actually a very common question.

And, being so common . . . hence the comments that you see whenever someone posts it. :bigsmile:

BTW, Google will often give you much better search results than the built-in WaGuns search. Just put "site:waguns.org" at the end of your search query. Check this out:

Most of us have probably asked the question. That's why it's funny. Just consider it part of your initiation.
