How do I view my previous posts? Can never find replies to my Q's on this board.

And when in 'view all messages' mode, rather than individual topic mode, I hit the 'new topic' button and the topic goes into which section? I got a warning for posting into incorrect area you see?
Keep up the good work.....Ant

1 - try the "Search Site" option under the Archive menu on the left. As it stands, I don't think you can see all messages by a particular user.

2 - good question! I've no idea, but I would imagine the main Wigan Warriors bit of the message board. To be honest I find keeping the different sections helps to keep a handle on how many new messages there are to read...

Hi Dave or Fraggle. When I post a message, the script is barely visible and the Font looks like Lucinda Writing. Is this my fault i.e. my computer playing silly beggars? Any clues/ Thanks.

Could be something with your PC, I'm afraid. What web browser are you using? I use Firefox on the 2 machines I access this website on and have had no problems. That's not to say there are never problems with FF, but it seems a bit more difficult to break than Internet Explorer!

I had similar problems on another forum, switched over to Firefox and not had a problem since

Thanks for that. Unfortunately I also use Firefox! I've contacted Microsoft so I'll wait and see if they come up with any bright ideas! It's weird because it doesn't happen on every site.
Thanks anyway.

Why do you sometimes block threads and not others.
I posted a thread then someone else posted the same and this one was not blocked even though it was stated that it was already on the board. Whereas another one was posted about a thread which was already on the site and it was blocked.

Thanks

I'll pop in here on behalf of the mods (I'm not one)! The simplest answer is that we've only got a handful of mods, and they're not always online, plus they don't have time to read every single thread. Nothing personal!

Also, they tend to be a bit less strict during the off-season, when there seems to be a lot more off-topic chitchat than once we've got real games to talk about!
