Dear Soulcast,
 
question: why is not possible for us to retain the PM messages we sent?
After they are sent, they are gone. ....*sigh sigh*
I dont like it.
(And, please, note.... i am not pouting otherwise Silverswhisper would troutsmacking me on the head....he doesn't like pouting bloggers....)
 
Fact is sometimes I would like to re-read what i have written and sent.
There is any chance that in the future we might have this feature?
It doesn't look so difficult to me.....but who am I? Computer illiterate as i am...
 
There is someone else here who is wondering the same thing?
 
The PM underground world has taken a life of its own.....to the point that more than one scaster has already suggested me to be extra careful in using them......not being privacy one their best features...do you have the same issue?
 
Anytime i am here i wonder about the subterranean life taking place at exactly the same time underneath our "official" posts.. 
I wonder  who is sending to whom, and who is receiving from whom and how and if all that intriguing communication is different from this upper level one...
 
I am not asking to reveal any name....but are you using PM a lot these days? 
 
Makes you smile.........;-)  
 
And ...thank you, Soulcast, for any answer.
Yours,
Ginger

    I second the motion! Sometimes I forget what I wrote and the person may say, like, what did you mean? Rmuxie and I were just talking about this!! thanks Ginger!! Great minds...:))
  • gingersoul said on Sep 24, 2007....

    Mamie....again....great minds think alike!....lol...

    Ok, so we are already 3 signing the petition: you, me and Rmuxa...

    lets see who else thinks this is an annoying issue...

    When you are "up here" do you have the feelings you are writing on top of another leverl? Like we are on top of some underground world like in some sci-fiction movie?...lol..

    Maybe we are in heaven and the PM level is the Soulcast hell of the hidden emotions, the raw dislikes, the passionate encounters that can't be revelead here.....

    I know of a way to save your messages. When you send a PM, put your name in the address bar too. It'll send you a copy of it :-) I do that sometimes when I write something really long and would like to keep it.

    ETweenie......oh, good...thank you.....see? what i said?

    I guess me, Mamie and Rmuxa are the dumbiest of all......LOL...

    Do you use PM a lot?

  • evil_twin said on Sep 24, 2007....
    I admit that I do use it quite a lot. I get a lot of messages and recently cleaned out my inbox because it was 30 pages long! I have to give credit for the other idea to someone else though. I think it was Polarheart who suggested that awhile back. I can't recall. But ever since then, that's how I save my messages!

  • gingersoul said on Sep 24, 2007....

    Gosh, Tweenie, how can you keep up with all those messages AND the "official" blogs???

    You are a SC poster boy....lol...

    How did i miss Pollie's suggestion?

     

  • Mamie said on Sep 24, 2007....
    omigod! That is entirely too clever for words...okay I will try with one word:
     
    DUH.
     
    thanks guys!! Mamie
  • wakingharmony said on Sep 24, 2007....
    I Believe it was Et that told me about send to yourself too.....another thing I do I copy what I recieved and paste to reply and add my response, In case they didnt know what I was answering...I believe I learned this from lfbno7 ....see I am learning something....Does or can Soul Cast read our PMs? 
  • fearing said on Sep 24, 2007....
    Ginger - I'd like this feature added too.  ;-) 
    E_T is the king of cleverness. 

  • evil_twin said on Sep 24, 2007....
    Ginger, it's not to hard most of the time to keep up because I don't always get messages everyday. But some days I'll have quite a few waiting for me. Or if I happen to be online at the same time someone else is, I've had quite a few little 'chats' through the PM system.

    I can't recall exactly when Polar made this suggestion, but it was back when we first got the PM's. Someone else said they wanted a 'save' feature (it might have been me actually!) and she suggested that. She's brilliant!

    -evil_twin LA
  • fearing said on Sep 24, 2007....
    I stand corrected, Polar and E_T are the king and queen of cleverness.  ;-p
  • gingersoul said on Sep 24, 2007....

    Hey Fearing and Mamie ....we are a bunch of dorks and ETweenie and Pollie saved our lives...LOL...

    Waking.....our Lfbn is an endless source of surprises, isn'it?...:-) 

    No, I dont think Soulcast can read our PM......right?

    Tweenie...still....its a lot of time.....

    The very first interaction we had outside blogging has been using the famous Moonriver's chatroom, back at the first of this year. I remember how many of us started to gather there especially late at night and have fun. We were like a bunch of teen agers giggling in the dark...LOL..

    I remember epic chats with Secret, Daily, Satyr, Jenna, even Lioneljay and Mobil....one night we all moved to Yahoo and we got a voice conversation all together...well......they had..my feature wasn't working....grrr..... 

    The chat room is still on...does somebody still use it? 

  • polarheart said on Sep 24, 2007....
    Aaah, Twinny, you remembered and used my suggestion. . .you guys made me feel warm and fuzzy inside for knowing that I played a small part in helping out ((((hugs to you Gingersnap)))
  • gingersoul said on Sep 24, 2007....

    Pollie......and you have all the right to feel in this way....{{{hugs}}}

    Say hi for me to the Big Ben...:-) 

      

  • polarheart said on Sep 24, 2007....
    Gingersnap, I will throw a note in the River Thames that will float down from Tower Bridge to Big Ben :-)))
  • gingersoul said on Sep 24, 2007....
    Oh my......what if my London Boy will read it?....:-p
  • dailyachesandpains said on Sep 24, 2007....
    Gingerkins:  More great minds!  It was actually irritating me over the weekend. 
     
    I don't "trust" them anyway...do you really think they're private?  My paranoia is creeping about. 
  • pickersplock said on Sep 24, 2007....
    Whew, I've got a lot of PMs too.
    I hate to clear them out though.
    Because I am so forgetful, I need to refer back to them from time to time.
     
    As far as privacy?
    There is no privacy on the internet.
    Everything you've ever googled, is saved somewhere.
     
    Here are words to live by- Don't do anything on the internet, that you wouldn't do in your own front yard.

    [refrains from trout-smacking GS]

    um...i coulda sworn you and i discussed this very thing a while back, GS, but e_t's right, just send a copy to yourself. it's served me in good stead once or twice in the past.

  • SoulCast said on Sep 24, 2007....
    This is a planned feature, but it's not at the very top of our list so I'm not sure when we'll get to it. 
  • mobil said on Sep 24, 2007....
    I'm against you on this one Gingerbread, I can hardly delete my posts fast enough without SC saving my PM's haha
  • gingersoul said on Sep 24, 2007....

    Daily....ok, now you are creeping me out too....lol....but i agree with Picker in this....no privacy is respected on internet......

    guess is the price to pay

    Ed......really? well, who can remember all the topics we have discussed during all these months? ..:-)

    Mobil.....lol.....i know very well that you have a serious case of post-erasing syndrome.....imagine if you have to delete even all your thousands PM....*wink*....

    Soulcast....thank you for the prompt answer....:-)

    Guess we will have keep sending to ourselves our own messages then.......wonder if one of these days we will answer to our own messages thinking we are writing to somebody else.....lol....

    Welcome to the schizophrenic world of Soulcast...:-)  

  • silverwhisper said on Sep 24, 2007....
    o, i agree, GS. that's why i didn't trout-smack you. :>

  • gingersoul said on Sep 24, 2007....

    You are just this sweet ...:-)

  • skald said on Sep 25, 2007....
    Oh I was just going to say that Polar once told us how she solves that problem but there are others that beat me to it. 
  • gingersoul said on Sep 25, 2007....
    Skald....oh, i think i was really the last one to know this trick....lol....but thank you for wanting to tell me....{hug}
