when people receive pm's, it takes a while for them to realise that they have one (except for people who use the forums on a day to day basis).

how about when e.g. i receive a pm, then a small window opens notifying you that i have unread pm's!?!

the forum used to have something similar to that, and it was as annoying as fuck tbh so it was removed

ok, why didn't you simply add the button to shut this function down?

it was annoying to everyone?



i'm thinking of a small pop-up that only says

"you have x unread message(s) in inbox from:
MEMBER TOPIC& nbsp;TIME OF REPLY"

i think it would be quite annoying to not be on here and have pop ups coming up...

but if it did go ahead... like msn notifications would be gd... the small box in the bottom right hand of the screen... saying... '(1) New PM in your inbox' and the title as Saxperience....

I can turn the popup window back on, but personally I feel it is un-necessary.

Everyone knows that when they have a PM the ocon starts to flash at the top of the screen.

DOnt you glance up there every few minutes whilst browsing to check??? Thats what I do?

No, Mine just goes bold and stays like that till i've viewed them pm.

And don't people see when their clicking on 'Forum Home' and 'General Chat' at the top of the page?

i didnt think as soon as you log on the web, i meant as soon as you open sax-p, but if everyone feels it's unnecessary, then leave it the way it is

simo, i know the MAJORITY of us do look at the top of the screen, but you and the moderators look up there more times than the rest of us as you guys are there to sort problems and queries out.

all i meant was a little notification box in the top left of the screen saying you have 1 unread message.

or if people didnt like that idea, then how about when you sign in to sax-p, a window pops up telling you that you have unread pm's?
