Can I request to be off post review?

As a newbie, you only have 8 posts so far. We need to see more of your posting style before making a decision to take you of post review. Thank you..............OMT

Hey OMT
How do I get access to my PM's?
Also, It lets me edit some posts (like this one) but not other such as in my soccer thread.Why is that?
Thanks lakershomer.

Thanks lakershomer.

Click on Private Messages on the left side of the toolbar above. Under My Settings click on General Settings. Scroll down to Private Messaging and mark the circle Private Messaging On. Then click on Save Changes at the bottom right of the page.

As for edit a post, there is a time limit that you can edit. It used to be 5 minutes from the time you originally posted. Under the new upgrade, it appears to be a bit longer but I'm not exactly sure how many minutes you have to edit a post.

Hope this answers your questions.

Thanks OMT! That was a great help!

Are you still having the problem, because when I look at the Free Odds right now, only the games that have started are red while the remaining games are still showing line movement. Should this occur in the future, please start a thread in the Offshore Forum entitled "Free Odds Down" and all of our moderators will see it and will notify technical support.

First of all welcome to the RX. I hope you find our site enjoyable. As to your question, the feature to send an e-mail when a new post to a thread/subscription is currently not active. At this time, it is uncertain if it will be activated.

OMT,

-Goldwater

The green bars are called Reputation Level. Our tech support only recently added them to the current upgrade. We have yet to determine how and when we will be adding more bars to our posters. Currently only the moderators and a few long time loyal members of the RX have more then 1 bar. Please be patient. At some point in the future we will start adjusting bars, but currently our tech support is still working on the entire upgrade which takes precedent.

Since you are new to the site, you were placed on Post Review which disables your PM feature. I just removed you from PR, so you should be able to use your PM feature now. Enjoy!
