I wonder if anyone else has had an issue when sending a PM and pressing the Submit tab, you end up at the Mine Exploration and History Home Page.

This only happens if I put the cursor anywhere right of centre on the submit tab so if the cursor is hovering over the I or the T, I get Home page. On the S or the U , my PM gets sent.:confused:
Works the same on Linux too.....hardly surprising.

Anyone.......?

That's a pretty specific set of conditions to produce the bug :lol:

It does it for me but only if I have left a message open, part-written, for about 5 minutes; it seems to 'time out'.
If it does this for me I just hit the BACK button, and then SUBMIT again and it goes.

Can't replicate your bug sorry!

Yes, experienced the same on Sunday although on Android (so not sure if cursor related), think the issue was timeou. Back and re-send worked for me

Ah that explains your PM on Sunday; may have sent once or twice??!
Agree, the timeout thing is the most common cause.

If its a lengthy message I generally COPY the text before hitting SUBMIT.
Then if it all goes Pete Tong I can just PASTE it back in :thumbup:

Using the back button helps every time and the copy and paste approach is useful too.
I just find it strange that if it is a time out thing, that it doesn't happen when posting to the main discussion forums.
No real problem, more an observation and question to go with it.
I'll just keep using the back button when this happens.:)
