Computer tip

Since the spammer was one some of the replies went to some really old posts and some have been answering the really old ones.

Here is the tip:
Go to the CREATE which is when the messages were created and then click the gray arrow--you might have to hit the gray arrow a second time to bring the messages from oldest to newest created and then we don't have to worry about the ones that the spammer replied to.

Hope this helps--I got this tip from another board on this site.

    Another tip for some newbies
    Please don't use all CAPS for it is very hard to read.

    Thank you.

    Spammer
    I must have missed the spammer, probably a good thing. Did we have someone crack into this site? What happened? Also, I was wondering if this site has a way you can flag messages to check for replies??
    Thanks,

    What you can do
    What you can do is add a thread to your favorites which is on the top right corner.

    Also if you just want to read the new replies and not go through the whole thread you can click on ex: 2 new and it will bring the first new one up. You may have to scroll through some of the old messages to get to the next new message if someone posts their reply in the middle of the thread.

    Hope this helps,

    Thank you. I have been on
    Thank you. I have been on this site for almost a year and there are so many ways to use it that I am just finding out. I guess it's a good idea to play with the words in blue and see what they do. xoxoxox Lynn

    I need further help, please!
    I need further help, please! I flagged the offensive messages from the spammer which is something I have always done with "questionable" posts,and more often than not, I look at the original posting date, but I don't see where the CREATE is you spoke about. Where is it, pls?

    I am hoping that as soon as I hit "post comment", I will magically see what you are talking about, and then I will just feel kinda foolish for not already knowing! :-)

    Hugs,

    on the main screen where our threads are there are the following headings:
    TOPIC REPLIES CREATED LAST REPLY

    Click on CREATED and then the messages will sort to oldest and then click on again and it will bring the most current to the top.

    Hope this helps Chen and others.

    Hugs,

    Thank You!
    Thank you so much. That totally worked! I was going blind trying to find the most current.
