How many of you check your PRIVATE folder on a regular basis? I have over 28 unanswered questions - I sometimes things that this feature gets over looked by many of the CUTE family. FYI go look.

I have sent quite a few and not had a reply - that is one of the reasons why Secret Santa went to email! I wish the "add comment" tab could be removed altogether. That would save the problem of invisible replies.

I have a whole long list of Cuties asking for name Snowflakes, but no info and they do not answer the PM I send back to them!!! I wonder if they left Cuties or just do not look! I try to tell them to hit "Reply" rather than "Add Comment" because a "Reply" will give a +1 to my file tab. Ohhhhhh Weeeelllll. Hugs, Judy

I do check it but I don't get many PM's. Veronika has responded to questions through PM's so I do try to keep track, especially if I've sent a PM to someone. Hopefully your questions will make people more aware of the PM feature.

Thanks to all of you - I have had one two of mine answered - but still have +28 - I guess my +28 is always going to be my 0. Hehehe!

I don't think mine will ever get down from the +28 - they are old - except for a couple - I just wished I could delete them.

YES!!!!!!!! I have been trying to find a nice way to tackle this....I have had so many send me PMs with questions, or requests, that I can't answer or fill with out more information. If you send a PM please check back to see if it has been answered. And use the Reply button, not the comment, as the comment doesn't register a new PM for me....PLEASE!!!!!

I check mine when I come on to the site.

I've had others send me PM's looking for info, and I've replied to them, but they never bother to get back me. Just getting a "Thank You" is nice, at least we know they got the message.

IMO, if they know how to send me a message, they should also know how to reply.

Some of them are - I have +28 right now - no way to delete them - so my +28 is my 0, I suppose.

Good reminder, Shirlene, though I do try to check mine at least every few days just in case! I think it often does take newbies a while to work out the PM thing.

Thanks dear - most of mine - are not to very many of the newbies, however.

I also want to add to use the REPLY and not the ADD COMMENT button. Only when using the REPLY does the + sign appear to alert one that there is a answer to a PM. Too many times I would have missed the answer if I didn't check back anyway.

My special thanks to Bevintex, Pcteddyb, Jofrog2000, 02kar, Airyfairy, Colonies1, Sbott54, Stitchship, Sewmom, Shirlener88 who all got flowers today. They responded to my question of 11/2/10. Until today I did not know about this. I also collected more angels due to their help.

I did get a pm awhile back from someone I answered in Jan 2010. So maybe this reminder will let more know about the pm tab. Thank you Shirlene for bringing this up.

Anytime I see that I have one, I check it and try to respond asap-although, I do see that I have a few that apparently I didn't answer back through PM but rather through email. I just wish there was a way that we could empty out old PM's-

Linda, I agree - wished that we could delete them - after a period of time - too.

I try to look at it every time I open the freebies tab as it is right there but there are days I am so tired that I choose to overlook it. I try to answer any pm's within 48 hours though.

Bev, I am not sure how they both got stuck - but I have many that have answered - in another one - so that leaves the original one unanswered. Thanks for always answering mine, too.
