How does Instant Messaging (IM) work?
When you see a user is online the IM feature will be available under the users main profile picture. To send an instant message click ‘Send IM’. A separate window will appear which will allow you to instant message the selected user. Just type your message in the text box and click the send button. This window also contains some added features: Report as Spam, Block this Loser, View User Profile, Add to Contacts. Please note that a user may have their IM settings set to only allow their Contacts to contact them, they may also have the IM feature turned off. To change your IM Settings click on My Profile, then Settings, and use the Instant Messages pull down menu to select your changes. Make sure you save the changes when you are finished. NOTE: IM features are exclusively available to UPGRADED MEMBERS. To upgrade your membership, log into the site and click the Upgrade link found in the top right of every web page of the site.
