Cannot send a PM

Cannot send a PM to DIMITRIOS TRIMIJOPULOS

It gives me error, that that username is invalid.
"You must include at least one valid recipient."

In the name it automatically writes

Dimitrios Trimijopulos [user]

and even if I remove the "[user]", it still gives the error.

I can send PM's to other people though.

Thanks

I've had the same problem. If

I've had the same problem. If the users name does not appear in the autocomplete, there seems to be no way to message them. Oddly enough, in the past I was able to start a new pm conversation with "The Pragmatic", but recently I can not.

I've experienced the same problem. You can use an old letter and still make contact but the letter gets really long.

You need to ask the person

You need to ask the person you want to send your message. what is their username....not the display name.

it is so strange that you cannot know anyones username untill they mention in any of the forums. I dont know why it is made so hard to send a pm now

It is prob just an oversight.

It is prob just an oversight. Something got changed, and it in turn changed this and no one noticed. Something like that.

If you have a previous PM

If you have a previous PM conversation, it might work to reply on that conversation.
But if a user has shut PM's off, it probably won't work.

My PM's have never been shut off, so if it hasn't worked sending to me, then it's probably a bug.

There was never a previous

There was never a previous conversation before, so no previous message to reply to.

I cannot send a new message

I cannot send a new message to The Pragmatic either, but i can reply to his started pm.

All the time i click on "The Pragmatic" profile it says:
"Oops, looks like this request tried to create an infinite loop. We do not allow such things here. We are a professional website!"
It says that after it crashes for a few seconds and it finally loads with that message written in green at the bottom right corner.

It does not happen to any other profile I tried including DIMITRIOS TRIMIJOPULOS, so it might not be related.

An other problem is that if DIMITRIOS TRIMIJOPULOS is blocking pm's, the site should allow you to know this, instead of saying that "You must include at least one valid recipient." only.

E-mail notification problem.

E-mail notification problem.

It seems that PM's are working now, at least when reusing previous message threads. But the e-mail notification functionality does not work.
So there is no notice about getting PM's.

The PMs are working but

The PMs are working but sometimes sends two copies : (

Shows four notifications when sent: two red saying the msg was not sent and two green saying the msg was sent.
