The path from getting an alert to a PM... to getting to the PM.

Post by The Quadfather » Wed Jun 01, 2011 1:40 am

Is it just me, but I find it kind of awkward and weird how the website pushes you through to reading a PM in your inbox.
What I mean is that in my email account I have an email that tells me I have a PM message. So I open the link to the PM.... for a split second I see the actual message in the PM... Then I get sent to a small box that reads, " You have one message in your personal messages".... I click on that. Now it goes to the actual message. I now have just a few seconds to read the message, then suddenly it jumps to my entire inbox of messages.
I now have to make like my 4th click on to the message to actually open and read it.

A lot of wasted clicks.

Just make it so you don't get e-mail notifications for PM's. Then when you come over to WAlakes you will get the first alert/popup box and its all good.



I agree though, I have been experiencing the same thing you are talking about and it is kind of silly. :bigsmurf:

One of the harvesters of the sea.
I think before my days are done,
I want to be a fisherman."

I had that problem, until I took the Evelyn Woodhead Speed Reading Course :geek:
