PinPics Trade Request not going through?
Yes, the multiple request feature seems to be failing. I have observed this also.I tried to send out 5 TA's and the "system" just sent out to the first person?? Seems like the whole PinPics "system" is dying a slow death. What a poorly run operation.
How curious. I have an @msn account and it worked fine until a few months ago. Thank you for the information on why trade requests are no longer coming through.I am not sure if this is still a problem for the trade request function of PinPics or not but when I wanted to start using a new email address for my pin trading no emails from trade request or the site were coming in inbox or spam folder. I contacted the PinPic admin and was told that their server works with accounts from Gmail and Yahoo mail and a few others but not Outlook/Live. I was advised to open a Gmail or Yahoo account for the best results.
My pinpics email has always been through Hotmail (now Outlook). Why would it all of a sudden stop working?I am not sure if this is still a problem for the trade request function of PinPics or not but when I wanted to start using a new email address for my pin trading no emails from trade request or the site were coming in inbox or spam folder.

Would a new server help?In the past, it's been because those providers have marked Pinpics as a spammer email account. What would happen is people would sign up for Pinpics, and at some point stop trading and also change their email. Their TA would still be active, Pinpics would send out emails and they'd bounce. The automatic spam filters would kick in and then all Pinpics emails going to that provider would get rejected. Then they'd have to work with the provider to get things fixed, and some were more cooperative than others.
FWIW, I have gmail and my last trade request email that came through was June 5th. Although, if I check Pinpics I had had more recent requests.
Given the other issues Pinpics is having (broken captcha), I wonder something changed in the protocols somewhere (things get updated with the CMS, or PHP version something, somewhere and things go kaput).
Me makes three. I'll specify a bunch of trades and then get the list of what is sent and it's only one person.Yes, the multiple request feature seems to be failing. I have observed this also.
I have Gmail and am still getting emails, as recently as yesterday. They do go to my spam box, but that was always the case.

Would a new server help?
Yes! Just uploaded a pin into pinpics! Ohhh, Pinpics is about to get exciting again! Yay!I have been getting emails all along, but today, for the first time in a long time I got a trade request. Also, someone on the pinpics forum said they could add a pin, so maybe some of the problems have been fixed. We can only hope.
Oh! And now uploaded pin number two! Whoo hoo! Yay for Pinpics working again!Yes! Just uploaded a pin into pinpics! Ohhh, Pinpics is about to get exciting again! Yay!
Hi,
I had two trade requests come to me and I responded with an answer (to both) that I would like to trade.
I replied to both of these requests within 12-24 hours and got no response from either person.
Now, I know that it could just be that they no longer want to trade, or maybe they took another deal...but it is kind of weird not to hear back at all. I am wondering if they even got my message?
I have sent them trade requests, hoping that may work...
Anyone having trouble with messages going through from their account?
I am one of the people who doesn't respond. Let me apologize and explain. I have my account public as I have a friend who trades for me and he always checks my wants list if there is something he thinks I might want. I used to go through the request but so many of them were someone offering an outdated Hidden Mickey that few people wanted and in exchange they wanted an LE 300 or something similar. As I can tell that people are perceiving this as rude behavior, If & when PP ever starts working, I will go through and respond to the requests. As I have over 100 of them, it will take awhile. Sorry. Penny
