    Hi, I found it via an Advanced search with: Istanbul

    It also shows via: http://www.standard.co.uk/esrewards/

    I had placed this URL on the original thread so the dupe would show but no problem.

    How? When he has switched his PMs off ?
    Hi, the pm went through fine when I sent it.

    He also still shows as a BG on the board ie:
    Dalkirst, Glad

    How do you know that he has switched the pm function off ?

    When you click on Glad their is 4 tabs - 1 of which is CONTACT
    When you click on Dalkirst their is 2 tabs - no CONTACT tab
    I can assure you that was not the case when I sent the pm or I would not have posted as I had.

    As far as I am concerned the pm has been sent & a note added re the recipient.That is all that is required of the generaal membership re asking for a merge.

    Maybe the OP could edit the title if the merge is not carried out as quickly as you seem to desire.

    I will leave this thread now as not a lot more can be said, I feel.

    I am not concerned if the thread has been merged - the reason I asked was that I had just tried to PM a BG about moving incorrectly listed posts from "Regular" to the main forum ...... when I found out that they had the PMs switched off I searched to see if any more PMs had been sent to him recently.
    Yes, I know there is no "R" in the word dream in my username - it was setup in memory of my grandson :A

    Cheers for the reply.

    Maybe you could email MSE Admin re your concerns as they will be able to provide a defintive answer as I am not in a position to give such as that.
    My reply would be just personal opinion, I feel.
