>>>I have sent 3 "private" messages to people on the forum about something over the last 3 weeks and I have yet to get a reply. I find a message on a thread, click on the person's name, and click on "private message" and send the message. It then says something like "message saved" (not "sent"!). Is the message going out or am I doing something wrong?

>>The message is being sent. It's just that the user may not have logged on, or not have seen the flashing private message or not had the time to reply it.
>On this, I have to say that back at home I don't have the luxury of a 17" monitor, and on the 640x480 resolution you can't see if you have a private message because anything below the time on the left pane falls off the screen, and there's no scrollbar for it.

Not to mention that the other person doesn't have to reply immediately (or ever.)
