I had someone PM me a few weeks ago & I can’t respond to them as the message won’t go through. Why is that happening?

I also tried to post up a message on the public message section of their profile explaining things but none of my messages are posting there either.

Why’s that? How can I fix that? Does this mean that I might’ve been blocked? I’m confused & upset. I’d appreciate any help. I took a break from this site. Hopefully that person didn’t think that I was ignoring them.

I'm not sure why you thought they didn't go through? You can review PMs you sent in your Sent Items folder:

https://mysupportforums.org/private....50&folderid=-1

You should see them all there. I also see a visitor message you left on this person's visitor wall, so that went through as well.

I just sent you a message, hope you can recieve it and are able to respond, it was just to help you figure out whether its just the one person you can't respond to or if its everyone

I thought that nothing went through because I saw nothing under the message section after sending it. Shouldn’t I see what I wrote?

The field remained blank as if I didn’t ever write anything at all. Is that normal or not?

How can I tell if a message was sent or not? I don’t know how to use the messaging feature too as I have hardly used it becore. It’s confusing.

Hi, thanks. Only you & two other people have sent ne messages since I’ve been on here. Maybe that person blocked me for not responding to them for two and a helf weeks? Idk.

I saw nothing in the space below their message when i hit reply. I responded a few times & I didn’t see anything that I wrote below.

What am i doing wrong?

Yes, I’m sorry but that’s not how PMs work. It’s more like email, so when you send a PM, it’s gone from your screen and appears in your Sent Items folder (link above).

Are you using a laptop or phone?

Theres less and less that works properly on my phone as time goes on, if your using a phone thats a few years old it might be that every time anything gets updated, less works on phone?

I have an old phone. I think it’s iPhone 8 and they are now on iPhone 14. It’s ancient in phone universe. All features work just fine.
Thanks for this!

My phones just a cheap thing from about 2 years ago, probably the reason why mine gets less and less working on the internets every time updates are done to sites
