    Wtf? I've sent several people on here pm's about work, but no one has sent me anything back? Anyone else have the same problem? It is kind of ridiculous:mad:!

    Well, it depends on who you are sending the PM to.
    Most of the time, I do get replies. It could be that they are in different timezones, so you might get a late reply.

    Odd, im new on here but just yesterday I sent a couple PMs and have gotten replies on all of them. I suppose it depends who you are PM'ing. That sucks though.

    Just start your thread in service section if you provide any kind of service. If members interestd they'll contact you for sure.

    No need to worry about that as it takes some time for others to use you and trust you.

    DON.

    A courtesy pm (thanks but not interested etc) is always nice providing you only pm info they specifically asked for :D

    I think alot of people forget their manners :rolleyes:

    Personally, 90% of my PMs are spam messages that's why I don't reply

    I've never had any problems. Just be polite and informative and let them know that you would like them to respond whether or not they choose to use your services.

    I'm guilty of not answering PMs to people where I am not interested in their service.
