PM'S: do you ask to be notified when its read?

[queenlives]

i realize this may be an odd post (ok, so what's new , but over the past couple of weeks i've exchanged a high volume of pm's with prime users. when sending a pm, i always decline the "do you want to be notified?" option as it feels a bit like invasion of privacy of the recipient.

but it's got me wondering, what about other users here - do you folks ask to be notified or not?

(suppose i shoulda/coulda create a poll, no?)

I always click "yes" but then I never get the notification

Not usually; unless I really want to know if they read it or not.

Zahntech, it tells you by saying if the message was confirmed or not.

Same here. I wish there was a way to shut the feature off.

There is no "notification" like you may be used to with e-mail read receipts, but you can monitor message receipt confirmations under Track Messages: http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/private.php?do=trackpm

Only if I click the wrong button by accident.

nope

It's a nice feature, so you can tell when PMs are read, rather than wondering if someone got your PM and never bothered to reply.

Are we talking about the e-mail notifications? I want to change the E-mail used, to my Yahoo from my MSN, becuase I don't like MSN anymore...yada yada yada.

Lets not turn this into another honor point debate. I think PM notification is a great tool. I dont always use it because it bumps the items in up your inbox. However, on occassions it is extremely useful to know if a person has read a PM. For example, the <B>Grammar Nazi</B> still has two PM's from me he hasn't read!

No. E-mail notification is different. We're talking about when you send a PM, you can choose to track when the message has been read.

Thank you for the clarificaton. And as for grammer, I think a spell check would be nice, sometimes we make mistakes and we dont even know it.

I dont use it because the recipiant can always decline the cinfirmation reply so whats the use ?

Is there a designated Grammar Nazi? Or is that me, because I'm such a school marm about such things.

Nah, it can't be me. I've read all your PMs. I'm just paranoid! :wink:
