Hi gents, if you have this function disabled then don't send us messages, we can't reply to them ;Hi gents, if you have this function disabled then send us messages, we can't reply to them
Is this what you meant to say ?
Nope, the "send us messages" part was the dependent clause. That's the problem with English, the imperative is identical to the infinitive
Let me rephrase my OP: If you send us a PM, but your "private message" function is turned off, we cannot reply to you

I still think you kinda screwed up the first time tho
Hi Gents. If you send us a message (while having your message function disabled), we will be unable to reply to your message. If you are BJHunter, we are purposefully ignoring youHi gents, if you have this function disabled then send us messages, we can't reply to them

To have interpreted the post the way you interpreted it, I would have had to write "If you have this function disabled (comma) then send us messages (semi colon) we can't reply to them."
Ahh, the power of punctuation is amazing! (Ever read Eat Shoots and Leaves?)

You were wrong....
hey, when you look like Emmanuelle, you're NEVER wrong, no matter what!
I think most of us dolts were able to understand her intial post.
Man every thread from now on, is going to have people complaining about bad grammer or spelling?
Oh dear, shall you deal with this one Emmy, or shall I?I think most of us dolts were able to understand her intial post.

The comma placement really throws one off when reading it too.
LOL, the point of the thread is that a friend of mine has his "receive pm function" turned off, and I really need to reach him. I'm hoping he'll read this and turn it back on. coughcoughcoughyouknowwhoyouare.....
It looks like there's an option to only receive messages from Mods and members on your "buddy list". Perhaps she is not on her friend's buddy list?I just thought we we not supposed to disable the PM function, lest the mods do terrible things to us when THEY cannot deal with us via PM.
Board Policy
Let's make it simple - Members must keep their receive private messages function turned on, always.
If it's ever turned off - regardless of the reason - you are in contravention of Perb policy and subject to an immediate ban.
Please don't make us have to enforce this rule.
