You may not have noticed it, but everyone who's a registered member of RacingIn.com has the ability to send and receive personal messages through the Personal Message system.

SENDING PRIVATE MESSAGES

The easiest way to SEND messages to someone (either Racers or Fans) is to find their profile and click the link on the right side of their profile box that says, "Send a private message to this user". Once you do that, you'll get a 'message box' opened up and be able to send a message directly to them!

CHECKING YOUR IN-BOX AND READING MESSAGES YOU'VE RECEIVED

Whenever you receive a private message, you should get an e-mail at your registered e-mail address telling you that you've got a new private message.

To read your messages, simply log in to RacingIn.com, CLICK ON 'FORUM' at the top of the page and you'll see a link for 'INBOX' in the thin yellow line just below the RacingIn logo.

TURNING E-MAIL NOTIFICATIONS ON and OFF

The personal messaging system is initially set up for you to RECEIVE E-MAIL NOTIFICATIONS when someone sends you a PRIVATE MESSAGE. This is how the system lets you know, "Hey, someone sent you a note. These e-mails come from the address "info@RacingIn.com"

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO NOT RECEIVE THESE NOTIFICATIONS, here's how to turn them off:

1) Log In to RacingIn.com and go to the 'Forum' section
2) Click 'My Profile' on the top right of the page, in the yellow 'menu bar'
3) Once in 'My Profile', click 'EDIT PROFILE' on the left side of the screen
4) Scroll Down to where it says "FORUM SETTINGS" and 'UnCheck' the box where it says "Receive an email notification when you get a new private message?"
5) Click 'SAVE'

COMMUNICATING WITH RACE TRACKS

You will notice that there are no 'Send a Private Message' links on Track Profiles.. That's because the best way to communicate with a track directly is to contact that track through their website or whatever other information that they may have listed on their profile.

HOWEVER, If you are a TRACK MEMBER who controls a profile, you DO have the ability to SEND private messages.

As always, thanks for being a part of RacingIn.com and best wishes for a great 2011!

If you have any questions, simply click my UserName on this post (ScottKo) and send me a private message!
