I could not send a private message to ColorfulGalaxy

Post by Citation needed » July 28th, 2024, 12:41 am

I could not send a private message to ColorfulGalaxy. It's supposed to contain passwords to zipped folders.

I could not edit the private messages that I sent to myself.

What a painful experience. Especially considering that it is not obvious to someone else why one would [want to] send a private message to themselves, and/or send a private message [supposed to be] containing some passwords, and/or how this is [supposed to be] Life/CA-related.

Reporting the thread for unnecessarily creating a separate forum thread, and for not providing enough details to explain what is supposed to be the website-related problem.

Unlikely events happen.
My silence does not imply agreement, nor indifference. If I disagreed with something in the past, then please do not construe my silence as something that could change that.

As discussed here, ColorfulGalaxy's account was banned. I doubt you can send private messages to a banned account.

Messages sent to yourself seem to automatically go to your sent messages folder, rather than your outbox. You can only edit messages in your outbox.

Thank you. Is ColorfulGalaxy's LifeWiki account banned as well? I hope he can return to LifeWiki when he finishes moving house.
