It was not a domain name. It looked like a pseudo name.
I tried to retrieve the message. Now it's gone.
Do messages fall off after being read?

shouldnt unless you delete them...it wont show "you have a new message" anymore...but you should still be able to go back into "ads youve placed" and click the number in the message column.

When posting new for sale ad, Season drop down menu has
WHITE/YELLOW/SILVER
BLUE/GREEN/GOLD

SILVER and GOLD should be swapped, yes?

Tip for you norton users....thanks to one of our TUG members (ruthm) for figuring this out on her own!

If any of you use Norton 360...you likely wont see many of the links due to them containing the word "ads"

you can eliminate this issue by performing the following steps!

1. Go to Norton 360 “tasks and settings” (It may be the same choice on lesser Norton products)

2. Click on “add on pack”

3. Click on “anti spam” or “ad blocking”

4. On the left hand side, bottom choice, click on “General” under “ad blocking”

5. click on “advanced”

6. click on “add site” (even though it appears that you are going to block this site)

7. type in the web sites (three separate entries) which you gave me (tug2.net; tug2.com; and tugbbs.com)

8. click on ok

9. Now you have a choice of “permit” or “block” ; of course the choice is “permit”

10. Repeat steps six through nine for each of the websites

11. Save your work and close down Norton

12. Restart your computer and Go back to the original e-mail and the links will now be displayed.

13. Save them in your “favorites” or “bookmark”

Work in progress...not complete yet...feedback is welcome...but this will become the new Timeshare Marketplace homepage once complete.

http://tug2.com/ads

contains all the "quick link" searches for areas and such like the legacy ad program does!

I want to list a floating week for sale or rent; but all I get is the week's calendar page. How do I list a floating week for sale or rent?

This is a great service you are providing--I have already listed several individually owned weeks for sale/rent!

Thank you!

Penny,

Floating week is an option when you select a for sale ad.

you have to click the radio button to select you are posting a floating week and of course have to pick the year in which the float begins (ie 2008/2009)

the next page asks you to select the START week of your floating interval. ie week 40.

after selecting that the next page asks you for the LAST week of your float interval...ie week 52 for example.

hope this clears it up for you!

some of you may find issues navigating to my current links...that is due to the fact we had so many complaints about being unable to see links etc due to virus/spam/internet security products blocking links containing the word ads....we've renamed the entire system and all pages and sublinks etc from "ads" to "timesharemarketplace"

so ill have to go in and manually change all my pages/posts pointing to /Ads to /TimeshareMarketplace

this will take me a bit of time however...please bear with me.

THIS IS NOW THE NEW OFFICIAL TUG TIMESHARE MARKETPLACE HOMEPAGE!

Brian:

Have I found a glitch? I received a message today indicating that I have a PM from a member in response to my wish ad. But I cannot access the message from the link. It takes me to the marketplace home page, but when I hit the "new message" button the first time, I got an error message. Then the button disappeared when I tried it again.

Okay, I found the message by going to my "wish" ad. What happened to the "new message" button? Does it disappear after the first try?
