Is the private message system down? (Resolved, false alarm)

Tried to send a new PM to two different members and they did not go through. Anyone else having this problem?

Edit - another poster helped me resolve MY issue!

    I tried to get thru to you hours ago and couldn't, then just now, and got the same again.

    "PERMISSION PROBLEM - user's profile is private".

    This is ground zero for where the mystic/mystique/mishmosh/mistake issue all started.

    Hopefully a flame war has been averted. o:) You were starting to get on my nerves >:)

    Same here. I clicked on your username, with the idea of sending a message and this popped up:

    “ Permission Problem
    This user's profile is private.”

    When I click on Catbert, bad things happen.
    Not sure what he got himself into. :o

  • MFeldMFeld Posts: 14,532 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I clicked on the name of four different posters to this thread and in each case, it pulled up their profile, enabling me to PM them if I wished. But each time I clicked on the OP’s name, I got the same message:

    “ Permission Problem
    This user's profile is private.”

    It says his profile is "private". Maybe he checked a box he didn't mean to, or perhaps PCGS is being held up by Ransomware pirates! B)

    There must be at least 100 people having problems because I don't have any messages. o:)

    @Catbert go to your profile and uncheck the private option. That might help.

    Your profile where you click on the circled item and choose “edit”

    Then uncheck the circled area

    Now it all makes sense….

    @U1chicago solved the mystery! Now I can receive whatever abuse the Colonel wishes to dispense!

    Sorry for the false alarm.

    Don't imagine Jack Nicholson.
    Think of me as Steve Martin as the dentist in Little Shop of Horrors.

    Now there was a guy who could handle the tooth! :/
    Whaaaat?

    I've always liked the OP, but his desperate need for attention is wearying. >:)

    I get this for just one person when I try to open their profile. Anybody know why?

    That particular guy is anti-social. You're being "ghosted" :'(
