Private Messages, Read receipts
Am I the only one who hates private message read receipts? I hate them almost as much as those stupid 'PM Sent' posts (as if the email and popup is not enough to indicate you have a new PM.)

If you hit cancel when the popup comes it will send without them. I usually complain to senders (if I know them) to not send me those.

I don't think its such a big deal, but the only desire I do have, si that when your sending a message, there should simply be a check box to send the receipt request, rather then have that little dialogue pop up in your face.

I've gotten better, I usually resists the urge to keep hitting "accept" to every little pop-up window that displays on my PC.

I agree. It's ridiculous. If I want to get back to you after I read the message I will send you a message.....if not, I won't. It makes me feel obligated to send a reply if a read receipt is sent....or else the person may get all bent out of shape that I read their message but didn't feel the need to reply...or didn't have the time....

Wait i think I misunderstood.. Do you mean you never get the receipt that someone actually read it? You have to go to where you can switch between your sent and received messages, there should be a message tracking tab. You can see it there I believe.

UD, on the drop down, there is a box for Inbox, Outbox, and Read Receipts. Took me forever to find it to.

Right under the "Jump to Folder" drop down box there should be a link that says "You have _ confirmed and _ unconfirmed private message receipts"

it is _much_ better not having the receipt box filling up like on the old PM system, but I do not care to have to confirm them and cancel out of them all the time. I suspect the annoyance is not a good trade for the usefulness. Just MHO.
