Qestions

What is the difference if you send you message through a thread or the PM and how?

Thanks.

eleutheromaniac is an unknown quantity at this point
When you click on a thread, there should be a box at the bottom of the page under 'quick reply'. Just type your response in there and click 'submit' and your post will be attached to the thread.

At the bottom of everyone's post will be a button 'PM', click on it and you can send them a personal message that can only be seen by them. Obviously, the difference is in whether or not you are comfortable with more than one person seeing it. Also, it is expected that if you send someone a PM, or vice versa, it will be kept secret unless persmission otherwise given.

Also, another answer to a question that was not asked.

N, that is not how you spell it.

Picking on the Newbie sully.

You know you can't edit the tag line (at least I don't think you can).

Coming to a writing forum with that as a topic is just asking for trouble.

I couldn't help myself, but you are asking for it if that is written in a writers forum, and she has written a book before so...

I type with two fingers, so I don't seem to have that problem


Note: This is the time when I look over the post to make sure that I didn't spell anything wrong.

Lol, spelling, what is that? Hehehe, I just copy and paste any long replies I make in Word so that the spell checker can correct the worst. But I don't bother with short post like this one... I remember when I first started posting on forums - after a while when ever someone posted something unintelligible with loads of grammar and spelling mistakes people would say: 'You're starting to sound like Emma...' So now I use word, and I hope my post are a bit better...
