Question on PM's

Why isn't there a "Preview PM" button available before sending a PM?

Hmmm Good question, I would hazard a guess that it takes up extra bandwith for that. Perhaps i am wrong. I never seen the preview button on other customized boards however at some of the places that I do have a preview button I never use it.

One thing that I have noticed is that if a pm goes bad or goes to a persons who's box is full the pm you wrote is lost and gone forever and you need to recompose it again.

I have learned to copy and paste to notepad before sending off the pm just in case that way I don't have to recompose.

That's a good idea. I do that with long posts as well, since sometimes they get lost and I don't want to have write the whole thing again!

When I post a reply to a thread I preview if I have put in links because I want to make sure the links are good before I actually post.

Same on PM's would be nice.
