Just wondering if this change to "reflect the look of Friends Reunited" means that people wishing to reply to our requests for contact won't be able to unless they are paid members (as happened on Friends Reunited when the messages were "stored" in a contact centre). This would undoubtedly mean a reduction in the amount of replies we get to our messages and would not be a step forward!! Hope Michelle can reassure us that non-paying members will still be able to reply to messages from paid members?? Thanks. |

It has always been free to reply to messages sent via GR and we have no immediate plans to change this. The new emails were redesigned specifically to make it easier to respond to messages so should should get even more replies. Thanks, Michelle |

Can I just nudge this? As I pointed out to Michelle in her thread on the Tips Board, this thread recieved lots of queries but most didn't get a response back from GR. A shame as it would have saved GR having lots of emails to answer--if they ever did bother to answer emails.... |

Michelle, Thanks for that. Long may it continue to be free for unpaid members to reply to contacts from paid members!! Look forward to seeing these new "easier to reply to" emails!! Maggie |

Michelle Looking forward to the changes; hope they prove to be useful. Could we please have a facility to do a "Quick Search" on places? I would be interested to learn who was searching for relatives in the same area as this may lead to a previously unknown connection. Thanks Helen |

Does anybody mind if I nudge this again? It would be nice if Michelle would reply o the queries raised by her own thread... |

I should like to make a recommendation regarding the 'TTF' message board - can you please make a facility to post a 'TTF' message about people who are NOT in your tree?? Currently you have to acces the board via a surname in your list. I am trying to get in contact/find a cousin in the States, but do not have her in my tree as I do not have enough info yet, so the 'TTF' post is not actually under her surname, and chances of her or someone she knows seeing it are somewhat reduced. Therefore I suggest a 'miscellaneous' board to enter messages for 'unlinked' surnames - please?? :) |
