Can you communicate offline (like you do with Sulekhs CH notes) on this forum?

Yes you can. Click on the "You have no new messages" on the top. Then click on New PM. Notes are called PMs (private messages) here.

Thanks. The acronym PMS is kind of scary :-)

I have never received a PM nor sent one in years of CHing. I do remember a whole bunch of ""x", check your notes" posts on CH. I wonder what people send in those private messages. If you personally know someone on CH wouldn't you communicate through Yahoo IM or email or phone?

i think you can also use the PM icon next to the poster's post... I have not yet used PMs here. I rarely used them in sulekha too.. i did post a lot of fake 'caru check ur notes' posts.. man did they rile up bnp no end.. I sorta regret those now.

Very Happy It was one of the early steps in the evolutionary path from CH to this forum.

We are still working on the guaranteed-reply feature in the PM module. In the meanwhile, your message may become clearer if you pepper it with some <!--s and -->s. I am told it's the latest urbandictionary street lingo.
