Contacting another member..

[(am)]

I should know this already but... how do you contact a member who doesn't sell and doesn't use the forums

Brain not working today, and I'm not up to anything devious.. honestly

er... how do you know they exist? ... okay, not quite as daft a question as it sounds. Have they contacted you first? Maybe by question? In which case you can answer them. But otherwise you're going to struggle I think. Is there no clue on their "all about me" page?

'They bought something on eBid, therefore they exist'

They didn't buy from me though, so I only know the user ID, what I need is their user Number, which I think is only visible when you hover over user IDs in some parts of the forums (like the list of currently logged in users). If I knew that I could send them a PM.

Sorry to be so enigmatic

User number? I don't even know what that is. I'm sorry, it might be leaving you as "enigmatic" but it's reaching me as "gibberish". I did mention elsewhere that I wasn't feeling very super-hero today...just as well I changed to my Christmas avatar! Their user ID (not number) will be the same in the selling section as it is in here - you can't have two, so if you know their ID try a PM anyway.

Thanks kimbo (231545), you've solved my problem without knowing it. I overlooked the obvious (am) always does things the difficult way

Oh *that* number. Yes, I do remember it being discussed a little while ago now Don't know of any use for it though. Glad I could help, however vaguely!
