Joey Russ 7,210 Posted December 29, 2017 Right, I basically sent who was on the shortlist (though many of them are no longer up for consideration) for the DDP to RadGuy, as I don't think hoarding a 50 name list in order to potentially find new people this late in the year isn't a good strategy imo...

Wormfarmer 426 Posted December 29, 2017 Speaking of idiots, I'd best just get this question over with. I'd like to submit, but my ignorance is starting to really crimp my ability to play (and host) more pools. What the hell is PM (my guess is personal mail), and how do I PM my list? Are we talking postal service, email??? Help! Also, once my question is answered, is there a way I can delete a post or is it a permanent fixture everyone has to skim forever and ever?

Death Impends 7,927 Posted December 29, 2017 PM = private message Click on the profile of the member you want to PM and you'll see a "Message" button in their profile header. Click on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
