How do I send a PM on asiaxpat.com?

This may sound silly, but it seems unclear to my husband & I how to send a Personal Message... when I go to compose a message, what does 'Range' stand for? I am also unable to add anyone to the list of 'usernames' (there is a long list of mainly numbers, some with names attached)... HELP?! I'm sure it is obvious... Thanks in advance!

3. in the Inbox, choose 'Compose'

4. scroll to find the user you want to contact

"Range" is the first digit/letter of the username. It starts with numbers so you can find users called things like "4dogs". Select the correct range (e.g. "f" for "funbobby"). and the drop down under it will populate with the usernames starting with that letter/digit.


I have seen better systems.

Used to have that option but due to people spamming we removed it

Yeah suspected it was something like that. The link on the page makes it easy to build a bot that sends spam to all the usernames that have posted in the forums. Not very nice.


You could perhaps get around the problem by implementing a captcha in the PM form.
