    I had this before Christmas. It made me paranoid people had blocked me.

    So potentially it could be active still , just not functioning at the minute?

    I've just sent you a test message through the Start A Conversation option. It looks to have worked. Have you got it?

    Me too. My conspiracy theory may be correct.

    messages received!

    So does that mean I am blocked , or can you disable the convo function in your profile?

    I can't answer that but I was most disappointed when it happened to me.

    I've had a look at my Profile. In the Privacy section, I can decide who can start conversations with me - either Members Only or People Who I Follow. I have first option ticked... maybe fitzytyke has it set different?

    Try to start a brand new conversation with me and see if it works.

    Can I check you are going to the inbox and then selecting conversations? (Top right) to send a message. There are some other options about messaging profiles and stuff but would ignore those.

    Joking aside you've answered my query in your earlier post. The privacy settings proves that I wasn't blocked as they were replying to my posts. I just wasn't in their inner sanctum :D.
