AARP Sandy ​@sandy , AARP Teri ​@AARPTeri , AARP Darryl ​@DarrylL35959 , ​@AARPCK - I just "received" an AARP Private Message (PM) from a newbie asking if I like their music. I "checked" their PROFILE and I am NOT seeing any posts or threads for them.

➡️[*** With your OLD SITE, the AARP Moderator had showed me how to BLOCK members I really DONOT want any messages from.

I am NOT seeing this "option" with NEW SITE. 😞

➡️[*** Also, how do we REPORT these "messages"?

Thanks,

Nicole 🤗💛

@SummerOnTheWay1  It’s not exactly what you want but you can limit who you get them from by first clicking on your profile pic, choosing settings, then go to The general tab to change the PMs to just who you follow.

I believe we are in an AI moderation at times.

Hey,Nicole. I am so glad to have found you again. I am having the worst time with the new community sites. I found your message, and I haven't been able to reply. I have been trying and trying. I hope that you and your Mister are doing well. I look forward to hearing from you. Take care. 🤗🐈🐱

Yes, I see that. I was almost thinking of not renewing my membership, but I did. Some days, it is very frustrating. I don't know why everyone always has to change things that don't need changing. Talk to you soon. Hugs and Luv to you and Mister from me and my Crew. 🤗🐈🐱🐹🐨🐰
