Is it time based e.g. 6 months, 12 months etc. or is it also tied to a minimum post count. I think it's just something we need clarified with specifics. The criteria is based on posts and reputation. For example, if you’ve been here 6 months, but have posted 500 posts with a lot of likes and recognition, this would boost your member status. You’ve earned two badges and 1,000 reputation points, which puts you at a veteran member. 1 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

If you reference his name, the post will automatically flag. As for Pekiner, as long as he has his rep who works in another forum, he will continue to be flagged. His rep has proven to be untrustworthy. This will be my last reply on the subject, as this is not the purpose of this thread.

Regular Member uu777 Posted October 16, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted October 16, 2022 On 8/20/2022 at 5:06 PM, Melvin- Moderator said: Dear Community, Some of you may have noticed that your PM has been turned off. We have been receiving a lot of complaints of fake accounts and shills sending private messages to our members. As a result, we are now setting private messages for senior members to ensure no shills or trolls abuse PMs. If you’re a senior member and have been posting for a while, this won’t affect you, as for the newbies. You’ll have to reach out to me first before being granted access. We need to ensure there are checks and balances so shills don’t abuse our community. Onwards, Hi Melvin, how do I reach out to you since I can not send you a pm? How do I get an access to pm you or other members if I have a question? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahal Hair Transplant Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 @Melvin- Moderator, This may be a stupid question, but how do I access private messages from the mobile version of the forum software. If I scroll down my notifications to my last private message, I can get into my inbox. But, I can’t seem to find an easy way to access my inbox by clicking on the menu. is there some quick and easy way to get into my inbox from the menu that I’m not seeing? i’m also assuming that our private messages are still active right? I don’t know if this account constitutes a “senior member“ but as a clinic account, I certainly hope that we can receive and send private messages. I do know I haven’t received a private message for a while but I believe it was after you posted this topic.

Rahal Hair Transplant Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 @Melvin- Moderator, i’m attaching a screenshot of what I see you when I click the menu from the mobile version of the forum software. For a quick flash, I do see the message icon towards the top right hand corner but then it vanishes. I don’t know if it gets pushed off further to the right where I can’t access it, maybe the length of our alias is too long, etc. But it would be great if you could work with Hans on fixing this so that we can easily access our inbox.

Best wishes, Rahal Hair Transplant I have this issue on my android browser too and for what it's worth, there's two workarounds. Not ideal but better than nothing. 1) Click through your notifications till you see "You have a private message" or similar from a user and it takes you to the inbox 2) When you click the 3 lines to bring up your account details etc. where the bell is, just next to it is the envelop icon for PMs. Now usually that pesky X covers it and doesn't let you access it, but if you're quick enough off the draw in pushing it before the delayed X shows up, it will take you to your PMs. Hope that helps. 2 Follow my first Hair Transplant Journey!

Moderators Al - Moderator Posted October 17, 2022 Moderators Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) If you press on the very lower right corner of the X where the mail is still partially showing underneath it, it will bring you to your messages. It's a very tiny spot, so it may take you a few times, but it works for me.

It's a very tiny spot, so it may take you a few times, but it works for me. I’ll continue to work on this but the problem is you can’t really click on anything on an iPhone because you don’t have a mouse. I guess my fingers are a little thicker so it’s hard to click something really small. Since this seems to be an actual problem, I encourage Melvin to work with Hans or the software programmer to somehow make room for the message folder icon in this area. It seems like it may only affect iPhones based on what people are saying. @Melvin- Moderator what do you think?

I haven’t tried using Microsoft edge on an iPhone but I will try that to see if it works. But ideally, this is something that should probably be fixed so it works on all platforms. I wonder how many iPhone users are missing out on private messages because of this.

Senior Member Bb111 Posted October 17, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) Melvin I have the same issue as well. The x covers up the messages button. One easy work around on Android (maybe iPhone too) is to rotate the screen 90 degrees.
