Unable to PM Ross - Posted By Michael (wrighty) on 13th Jan 08 at 12:06am
I can't PM.... I tried PMing Ross..

it says 'please enter a message' or something like that..

even though I did! {Unsure}

Also, have you deleted the default skin?

PM system now fixed.

As for the skin, it's set to only be accessible to staff (because of a code I've been testing on it). And because I needed to shut just this forum down for a few minutes I had to set your group as non-staff. I've changed your group permissions back if you want to change your skin back now.

Seems to be working fine now. {Smile}

But, why not make Maintenance Mode group-specific? So rather than just letting those not marked as "staff" view the forum; make it so the main admin can choose which groups can access the forum in MM? {Wink}

They can choose based on which groups they mark as staff {Tongue Out} The only reason I couldn't have anyone on the forum at all (including staff) was because I had to move the support tables to their own database because they were getting a little too big to share with other forums. In normal circumstances, having staff online would be fine.
