    But if you can keep PMing without any delays...........that is surely, turning the facility into a 'sort of' chat room?

    A good thing?

    Or a bad thing?

    i understand why the lag was added, but I too find it very frustrating, maybe you could reduce it for longstanding members?

    Voted. :D

    Four minutes is far too long between Pm's. :(

    Thanks for the thread Chaddy. :T

    I understand the reason behind the lag too. It can be soooooo frustrating at times though. I would also like to be able to send a pm to more than one person at once again, purrrrdy please. :T

    Me too.

    I'd also like the 'too short' message thing looked at as I've had to add this to post!

    I agree.

    Not bothered about PM time delay though. MSN is quicker.

    I don't like pm's if you can't say what you want in open forum why say it at all?

    What, even an exchange of private conversation and stuff such as phone numbers or email addresses, or chats about some personal problems? Surely you can't expect users to post such private things on the forum! :o
