I can't seem to find the PM function in the forum anymore. I'm not sure whether this is disabled for the entire board or just me?

well ... then I think there are jobs in the forum, even as I am.
As a new user with few posts, I thought that was the reason, so I'm not worried, but after reading your post, I think the reason is another.

Have a nice day

I think the PM facility has been removed. I just tried to access my inbox, but I can't find it.

We've had a lot of abuse of the PM system so had to switch it off at one point. I wasn't aware it hadn't been turned on again. We can do so if you think it's useful and as long as we don't get people using it to promote crap ebooks/ trading advice etc.

The PM system was turned off around a month ago.

I'll switch it on again. If anyone receives any spam via a PM can you please let me know?

Thanks

Maybe you could just set it so that the only people who can send a PM have made 10 or 20 posts first?

Something similar is already in place.

We recently tightned things up regarding spam and hopefully incidents of spam on the board will be a thing of the past or greatly reduced.

We won't be hearing from the kitchen salesman again anyway...!

That is harsh......but fair.
I have been taking anger management classes and tolerance sessions. As sitting in a room 14 hours a day surrounded by spreadsheets computer screens and adverts telling me that if I give £2 a month to Tansy she won't die have taken their toll on me. :)

btw I appreciate the plug :). Hope to see you guys come by and say hi.

The reason I wanted to use PM functionality was to send out message to certain people as I had couple of spare premium access passes for Ascot today and didn't want to post the message with personal contact details on the forum.

I think's it good to have PM ability and ban certain people if they abuse it rather than disable it completely.

I can see its back on the forum so thanks for reenabling this.

Cheers Marc.
The copyright thing is to stop someone taking my work. Over the coming months I hope it turns into a educational directory of trading advice for beginners/intermediate users. I don't mind the content going onto other sites if I have control of it. What I don't want is for somebody to be selling it on eBay for £3. I probably need to take some advice about the wording :)

Hope you visit often Marc
