Hi everybody,

I am trying to use the forum private message functionality, but it seems the messages I have been trying to send are stuck in "sent box".
So I fear that the recipients do not receive it.

I know this had worked before, so, do you think it is a bug? Or is this feature being deprecated? Is there any workaround?

Thanks very much for your help

Some forums (I believe this one is the case) marks messages in Sent box until the other person opens it. So it might not be a bug (but I never tried forum messages, as I can contact players directly from their profile page).

Thanks thoun,

Could be the case indeed. I have two messages in the sent box:

• I just sent the last one, so if the situation is as you describe, it is likely that the recipient did not read it yet. (I cannot send that person a message directly because they seem to have blocked instantaneous sollicitations).
• The recipient of the first message appears to have deleted their BGA account. So it is possible that they did not read my reply (they sent me a message in the first place) before leaving.

If someone from the BGA staff could confirm this I would be grateful.
In any case I will keep you posted if there is smething new.
