I am getting a lot of errors with private messaging today. Can anyone help me figure out why it is acting so strange?

Specifically, it errors when I have tried to return a message from older discussions with people here. And then I am getting an error saying that I cannot PM again for an hour. But I am not even getting a PM out. I think I understand that you cannot PM members until they are in the group "Advanced Members" - is that correct? I have never seen a time limit associated with the PMs that I send out in the past. I am just confused!!

Thanks!

Yes, due to issues with spammers there is a time limit associated with sending personal messages and emails via the board.

Take care,

Scott

Thanks, Scott!

Has it always been that way, and I just never noticed it? Or is it something new that was incorporated? And why can I not PM people that I have previously contacted here? And do I understand correctly about getting errors when trying to PM people that are new here, that they must be in the "Advanced Members" group?

Sorry I am still confused! Keila :)

I have had this occur also and as a long time member of the board i find it very troubling to not be able to return messages from other members when they ask a question of me. I am able to send one message but it is much more than an hour that I am prevented from replying I ususally have to wait for the next day. I understand the issue with spam but there has to be a way for long time members to get around this issue. It troubles me that people that are asking for important info on subjects might think that I am ignoring them. If there is any way to fix that? I and I am sure others would really appretiate it.

Thanks

Yes, I am troubled too, as I cannot even access the last PM that I received. It seems that I no longer have any PM privileges.

Unfortunately extreme circumstances require extreme measures--the spamming problem has reached a critical level...

I commented to Dh, last night, ohmigod, we have just been spammed big time! I appreciate the problem. Is there no way we can filter out the one-timers versus the long-timers?

I'm still pretty new here, and trying to pick up on the rules. What is the time limit for new members and PM's? I received an email telling me I had a message, then couldn't access it. I feel bad that someone will think I am ignoring them, do they get an error message too so they know it is nothing intentional?

I owe someone here an apology, I'm not sure who, but I hope they see this. I have apparently been breaking the rules. I thought I was just losing my mind and kept putting my link back in my signature. I was negligent about reading the rules, and received several warnings. I am sorry for not reading the rules as carefully as I should have.

The message referred to in the above post was a warning from admin that I couldn't receive. My question is, can admin override the no PM rule? Had I been able to receive the PM I would have jumped on board and began following the rules immediately.

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning?

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange.

      Celiac disease symptoms

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.
