This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

when I look at my posts, there are 3. one I initiated in introductions.
but when I look at the thread I posted on, pktpkt it isn't there. i see "subscription", but have no clue what that is. (I have not been on a forum in quite a few years.)
I posted on another thread, and that post IS THERE.

utterly flummoxed

Hello, proudmutt, and welcome!

Now, let's see if I can confuse you even more:

1. If you click on your name (as the "author" of this thread), there's a link where you can also click on all your posts. If you check those, you can also see which sub-forum you posted them in.

2. I think that the reason you can't find your post on pktpkt's thread is that it's at the end -- on page three. If you just click on the thread without choosing which page, if takes you to page one.

3. Personally, I have never ever used the "subscription" option on any forum I've visited in the 12 years I've been frequenting MS forums. However, as a relatively new "moderator," I should probably check that out myself. There are several threads at ThisIsMS with posting directions. I'll see if I can find an explanation.

Also, please feel free to send me a PM or Private Message and I'll be glad to try to explain what my MS addled brain tried to explain above... That's up on the upper left of the screen. I'll send you one and see if you can find it.

Good luck!

well, as that DID work, and with your tips, I think I 'll see if I can't just muddle thru. if I get stuck again, i'll get back to you. it sounds like you will be able to un-muddle my gray matter if need be!

many thank yous!
