Occasionally, I'll get a message from a member, complaining that they can't see such-and-such Hobby News story on their TMP homepage.

Guess what? It usually means they have that period turned off in their member preferences! grin

Or, I'll get a message from a member, telling me that so-and-so asked him to send him a PM, but the website won't allow him to do so.

Guess what? So-and-so forgot he has set up his membership so that all PMs are blocked! So he's telling people to contact him by PM, but he's made it impossible to do so! grin

So, where are your membership settings?

Your main settings are in the Member section here: TMP link

A few settings are on your Profile page (when you see your membername, click on it and you will be taken to your Profile page).

And your homepage settings are here: TMP link

You can also turn off specific boards from appearing on your homepage. To review your settings, you have to go to the board listing for each interest area on each of our forums.

Why would they change on their own(?), for one to need to check them periodically?

He didn't say that. He said a member may have set it up it that way and forgot. I know I just reviewed mine a few days ago and turned on a message board I figured I wanted to see now.

I admit to having been guilty of this a number of times: squawking that one of my posts didn't appear on the front page only to find out I had the subject disabled. I like to think I'm a reformed man now…
