Likes to mess with stuffs.

I told myself not to spend too much time on the site because of Firefly's cancellation, but since I was writing all that code for the reference database, I thought I would finish other things I had planned for the site.

So I finally found the time to write the code to allow FIREFLYFANS.NET members to send a message to other members via this website.

I'm sure many of you will find this feature useful because in the past there was just no way for you guys to contact eachother since email addresses of members are kept confidential on this site.

To send a message, simply bring up a user's profile. Note: you must be logged in to use this feature.

Let me know if this will work for you all. And let me know if there are additional features you would like to see.

What SergeantX said!

This is really shiny. I just tried a test at LostAngel.

When I first read the subject I didn't know whether to feel guilty: ooh, are we being too off-topic?

This is a great community you helm here, Haken. Everyone is so brilliant and witty. It's extraordinary.

I deeply appreciate it. Blessings on the heads of you and yours.

Shiny! Thanks, Haken. I don't know what I'd do with myself if you shut down. Huddle into a tiny fetal position and cry, I suppose.

Why not? Who else would appreciate it fully? There's this place that I go to: fanfiction.net, and they have a great library, but I think it would be a hoot!

You go girl! Be fearless!

Keep flyin'

You cannot send a reply to notify@fireflyfans.net, that is the account that sends out the messages and notifications. I believe in the message you received, it says to look at the sender's profile to respond.

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough as to the purpose of this messaging feature. Again, the messaging feature allows members of FIREFLYFANS.NET to send a message to other members of FIREFLYFANS.NET. It is NOT a webmail service. Although, if I spent sufficient time, I could probably create a webmail service for you all, but that's really an overkill at this point.

Anyway, you would use this feature to exchange contact info (such as email addresses) with other members so that you can email eachother. In the past, I had to broker this contact info between members. Suffice to say, automating the process is a lot more efficient.

ni dong ma?

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
I get it now! hee hee, silly me. I just automatically respond to emails that I get, I'm not that tek-ni-kul or stuff.

Thanks Haken!

PS: We might be gettin' more settlers here since it looks like Fox.com might be closing soon.
