How do I delete private messages? I am looking but don't see how to click on the message to delete it. I see the "Delete Messages" but that's it. Obviously I am missing something

How do I delete Visitor messages in profiles?

check the box all the way over to the right of whatever messages you want to delete, then click "delete marked" at the bottom...

The same way you usually delete your normal private messages, see "instruction" in the previous post (from Bonesgirl).

You need to moderate better the "staying on topic" bit mentioned in your header. Because the trolls are not the ones going off topic. Look in your own house, (that's code for the moderators are the worst ones for doing this.)

Just my opinion. Thank you.

Thanks. I just didn't see it, not that it wasn't there

Is there any way we can get rid of the gun toting smiley? It really does offend me, and others have told me the same thing.

Which smiley do you mean? Post it here.

hello....i have only ever posted my introduction here but have been an avid fan of reading spoilers and ALL discussions both on this board and our wonderful previous one, THEABY.

i have just received the email from bug regarding a plea for respect from all members TO all members and i just wanted to say thank you and i absolutely agree with your request.

i am a total techno-phobe and am basically clueless with boards, forums and the internet in general but adore your site, but perhaps most of all, i have always loved reading opposing, differing and similar views regarding one of my favourite shows.

this board had a hugely welcoming and friendly feel and i am sure that feeling will only return with twice as much force as before...after all we are entering the season of goodwill!!!
thank you for taking the time to stop any hard feeling----as sad as i sound, i look forward to reading updates from people every day and would so miss this place........many kind thoughts to you all and have a safe and happy week. xx

Hey guys! I just wanted to say that you do a wonderful job and this is the only forum I come everyday to check! Well done for the message in the homepage..I believe on critisism and each other's opinion as long as it doesn't offend anyone

Done.

Thank you. Although it would be respectful for them to be taken off certain sigs as well.

Excuse me, but considering that the person in question is a mod, and that they should be trying to solve problems, not create them, I don't think it should be an issue. I find it offensive to look at, as I've said. And I believe you meant that 99% DON'T have a problem with it...though I really don't see how you can claim that is accurate unless you polled every member.

Yeah, I'm not sure if I agree with asking someone to take something out of their sig that's been there since the day this board started. It's a smiley-not a real person. As much as it's your right not to like it, it's the members right to have it there. It doesn't break any forum rules, so it's not fair to ask that it be removed. Mods are people too, and entitled to their own opinion. If you tell someone they have to remove something that doesn't break any forum rules, that's just like telling them they can't have an opinion...

The signature issue is being dealt with behind the scenes. Let's move onto other topics.

Just received the email about "Signatures".
As long as the SIG is not crude, rude, racist, or down right offensive, what does it matter to the MODS what people have in their SIG's?
I usually just go along with what the "rules" of a board are but this "rule" I don't agree with. I know a few people have SIG's with non-related BONES pics/sayings and they should be allowed to keep them as it is part of their Personal Profile.
Just giving my two cents of opinion.
Note: I will always have Booth/BONES related SIG's

No one was asked to remove their sig by a MOD or ADMIN. A poster wanted someone else's sig removed.

Actually, the poster was offended by one part of someone's sig and was hoping to come to a reasonable compromise. That's all.

Thanks for your feedback and I understand where you are coming from. We would not make a decision like this unless there was a GOOD reason behind it. The other admins and I are not being petty we are looking out for all of you.

I think they are talking about me.....not your problem with violence in the sig of a mod

I got rid of it and will refrain from putting another one up that includes any sort of pics and we should all be fine

Wait...so we can put something offensive in our sig, as long as it's Bones related, but we can't use something nice like...oh, say a picture of a sunrise or something? That doesn't seem quite fair to me...I was told that as long as it wasn't an attack, you didn't feel that you could tell people what they could or couldn't use in a sig.

Oh, and just for the record, I never got an email about this.

I don't understand why you didn't receive an e-mail, however the rule is up in the Guidelines for Discussion and Debate thread. This rule is effective immediately.
