This is my 27th post (I went on a rampage today so that I could get up past 25) and I still cannot reply to the PM's I have. Do I have to write a official request for permission? I would just like to write back to those who wrote to me. I am a good egg, I won't ever write nasty things. But I do have questions, and not all of them do I want to publicize. Thanks...

Well, first you have to have a background check.


Then you have to send your sealed transcripts to superfly.

After a couple medicals, we may consider allowing you to PM.

OP: Doesn't censorship and the obstruction of free communication make you feel safe?

Hang on, let me log into my MOD account and turn on your damn pm function you whiney little piggy.... Very Happy

OK, that should do it. Try logging out and restart your pc three times, run a virus check, FDISK from the command prompt, and you should be good to go.

Very Happy

Because Otis/etc keeps spamming us via PM. But it hasn't really stopped him, he just posts a gazillion times on a thread (like one of the game threads) and then spams.

Because a guy named Kevin/Big Bill/Otis/and many other socks decided to spam pm a lot of people with nasty comments and a link to another Korea site (that banned him) and bothered a lot of people here.

They took pms away completely on the China boards.

BTW, this is DEFINITELY NOT Sparta!

First off, PMs are overrated. Next, it would help if your avatar wasn't whack.

whack? your avatar is wider than mine?

PMs are good for buying stuff on the buy/sell/trade forum. I'm not about to post my email address here.

You have to travel to your home country and get the police check, as well as visit the Korean embassy for an interview, first.

In all seriousness though. You should be able to PM. Try again, and e-mail the help if you still can't. That's what I'd do.

I sent an email. I tried to reply to those who sent test messages and it still will not allow me access. Oh well, it will be a while before I make a firm decision on where I am going in Korea, I know I will need it then.

Big Bill huh. The same guy back 3-4 years ago who used to spam these boards? The guy who had his own little forum going? Name sounds familiar.

The PM function is available for use by Job Discussion Forum members on all the forums on the international board including the China O/T and Job-Related Forums.
