Having trouble with sending/replying to PM's and also tried using the Email in BladeForums too, something going on with that service today?

There must be a glitch somewhere....
Yesterday I had a problem sending another mod a pm. Software said he wasn't allowing pm's. His settings were set to receive them.
His inbox wasn't full either. We couldnt figure out why he couldn't get my pm. When he pm'ed me, then I was able to send them to him again.
 
It is odd, trying to reply to a PM that was sent today, no go, just spins and says can't display page, tried it on two computers and my ipad too, in case it was something component related, but all tries came up as a fail.

Gary, I had trouble copy and pasting a PM I recieved from a member to another mod yesterday. It was frustrting to say the least.
 
yep, I saw the wheel spinning, a little longer than I thought it should, so I quickly highlighted and copied what I had written, saved me the trouble of having to type it in all again ;)

Reminds me of a story I use to tell my kids when they were working on the computer doing homework papers;

One day the Devil challenged Jesus to a contest as to who could type the fastest in an hour's time in Microsoft Word with the least mistakes in spelling.
Jesus accepted his challenge and they sat down facing each other with desk top tower computers back to back and when the hour chimed they started typing away, FAST...

As the hour neared it's end, about 5 minutes remained and a sudden power outage occurred in heaven and the computers went dark! Who won the contest?

my daughters would look at me and shrugged their shoulders and said "who?"

I said "Why Jesus won of course, because, Jesus Saves..."

Yes I know, play on words but it taught them a valuable lesson as we do have a lot of power outages here especially during winter and you should always save your work as you are going, they asked 'how often?" and I say well how much do you want to have to retype over?? :)

Well I think I got it figured out, I kept trying over and over to send, thinking it was some bug and it would finally go through, but today as I tried to paste in my saved message, before I could paste it in the send button got hit by mistake and an empty message went to him.
So then it hit me, I was a little long winded in my message and must be a word limit on how much you can put in a PM so I shortened it and that finally went through, I'm afraid the fellow thinks I was snubbing him by not replying, but of course that was never the case, communication is always key with me, glad I finally got that figured out and it was sent, because I couldn't send an email either, probably also too long winded...
