I know this should go into the forum area but you're all still huddling in here so today only here's a tip... By default, if you receive a PM, (private message), then the welcome box in the top right will show that you have a private message. It's possible for a pop up box to appear instead, so you'll never miss one. Here's how to set it up. From the menu bar above click on "User CP" Click on "Edit Options" Scroll down to "Show New Private Message Notification Pop-up" and tick the tick box Then scroll to the bottom of the page and click on "save changes" Done
