Hello All,
I posted this earlier this month. To repeat -
Whether you use the web interface or the individual message or digest? version of the Watercooler, please reply directly to the original poster if your reply is for that person only. Do not reply to the full group in these instances.
Here are examples of such instances:
- You simply want to thank a member for their post or agree with them
- You have a specific question about something a member is offering for sale or rent
- You wish to engage the member/poster on the topic in a personal manner that you don't want another 4000+ people to see
How do you reply directly to the member/poster?
On the Web interface, you will see a "Private" button on the lower right side of the reply box. On messages delivered via email (individual or digest) you may choose to reply to sender. You'll see that link under each email message.
Thanks much,
Jon for the BDs
