    If they've enabled email or any of the social network stuff, you can access them through that by clicking on their username. It's possible that they may be a chat user; you could try logging into the chat and see if that person is there. If not, you could maybe ask if anyone in the chat has a means of contacting them directly and can tell them to clean out their PM's. If that fails, you could post a message with their name in the conversation area, and advise them to clean out their PM box.

    Barring all that, it's rumored that the most popular members have a level one coded channel that is always open in case of razor emergencies. Perhaps you can find a way to get a message into that system.

    Also, if someone has been inactive for a long time, his PM box just might be full because he has left. In any forum there is a sort of distribution of members vs post count. Last time someone checked, most people left around 100 posts. by that time they have collected the necessary information, bought their stuff and learnt how to use it. Since most people are not bitten with a passion for shaving or the equipment, they leave at that point.

    Thats a funny statement Bruno. I find most of this kind of silly and yet I am still around...maybe I just like you guys.

    Jimmy is still the record holder.
    And there used to be a time when only a handful of people had the 2000 post blabbermouth status. These days there are more of course, and there are more 500 post users as well. So I expect the average to have gone from 100 to 200 or so. I don't know.

    But what keeps me here, coming back, is the community of people and friends I've made here.

    Oh, Ron. I guess mine is fine then. I've been doing my best to keep my PM stash to a minimum. Doing very well too I might add
