I namechange all the time and don't post very frequently, but I've been her since 2007.

Just over the last month or so I've noticed people randomly PMing me to ask me about things I've written on a thread, that could be asked on the thread. Has anyone noticed this too?

I don't mean where there's been an arrangement to PM people privately just people randomly messaging me to ask about something I've posted.

Just checked and I haven't had one for 8 years! Feeling left out now 😂

Solved 😊

I've had a few over the years asking about things which might be too personal to post on a thread eg the name of the company I work for or which college/training institute I completed certain certifications with or which dog rescue I worked with etc.

I haven't noticed a rise in messages.

Haha thanks for all my lovely messages.

it’s actually quite interesting to see the messaging interface - never seen it before today 🤣 x

Does this thread exist because MNHQ wanted to increase messaging?
