Yeah CB mine too, I suppose he went to the PM section and clicked on the "user's Groups" and shot out the message from there... Just a new member not knowing the functions, we'll get him squared away.  :thumright:

You're right. I see that now. Fearless Leader's User Group mass PMing does work.  :cheers:
OK then, I sent him a reply and told him to look in the Discussion Forum so we'll see.

I got one also, hope it's just an innocent mistake, most likely is but you never know, as of last night he or she had no posts.

At first I was excited that I had gotten a PM...then I realized it was a mass shot about a 290 XF (I have a 19-6 and know zero about the 290XF!). Needless to say, depression followed.

When we came up with the area groups idea, it offered a tool to mass PM in YOUR area to alert of a gathering or maybe a question about where to get something locally.
I see it does indeed work but not quite what we had in mind  :?

It's no big deal (no inconvenience), but I think anything you can accomplish with a mass PM you can also handle through the boards with a message placed in the appropriate area. Again, no sweat off my back, and love to see that you guys are working on making the site even better. :thumright:

Well, seeing as I got one too, I assume he's on the west coast somewhere around here...

He ought to PM Hawg Hunter...

I think he hit the "Central Florida" group...I think that's the only one that I am in, and I think it stretches from coast to coast maybe? How many 290XF posts/questions is that in the last few weeks from (presumably) separate posters? That boat just got hot apparently!

Spammers behind the guise of 290 owners?  A flotilla of Somali pirates piloting 290s?  Nigerian diplomat's daughters wishing for you to spend money on 290s, they will forward you the check?  Only the shadow knows... :mrgreen:
