PMs broken?Follow

Ah, life behind the Great Firewall. Are PMs broken for everyone, does the Great Firewall want to make sure we don't get PMs about Cataclysm, or am I just posting from one of "those" IPs?

Update: I can see that I have a message waiting, but if I click "view" it doesn't load. Going to the account page didn't work either. I haven't changed my add-ons or security settings since the last time PMs were working for me.

I sent that PM as a test just to help narrow things down (we now know that PMs aren't entirely broken on your end, just not viewable). Try sending me one and we'll see if that narrows things down for the devs to take care of.

Thanks! OK, if I click on your name, I get the usual options. Clicking on the option to send a PM gives me: http://wow.allakhazam.com/msgs.html?action=new&to=MDenham and a blank screen. There is no sign of the page loading, it goes straight to "done". This isn't the first time I've had this happen and if I recall, the last time was something that had changed on the site's end.

It is a mystery, but either the Great Firewall decided that I'm allowed to PM or something else in the loop got fixed. If it was the intervention of one of the admins, my thanks. :)

Ah, well, then may your wombats always be well fed (but hungry enough to be vicious)!

But... I said "hungry enough to be vicious"!

PMs appear to be broken again. Perhaps the wall of text I typed tripped a filter? I remember the mess when I first started posting here. :)

Sorry about the trouble you had with the filter. I added an exception to it for your account.

The email filter was set a little too sensitive and tripping on things it shouldn't have.


Edited to add explanatory quote from the original filter mess.

Well, it has been awhile but I'm back to getting a blank screen for PMs. If someone could wave a magic wombat or some such again it would be appreciated. Thanks!

There was a small change to the PM system to fix some issues others were experiancing. Maybe that change hasn't migrated correctly past the great firewall of doom yet?

Could be. I'm still without. If you can get it fixed, I'll offer to bribe you with a quasi Easter egg!
