private topics

How do I get rid of them all, don't see how, thanks.

all parties need to"opt out" of the PT, then the system deletes the thread

Thanks but dosnt help, cannot see how to opt out.  With respect to those who put their time into running this site, I find it the hardest to actually do anything on it apart from a simple post, out of all the sites I go on. 

do you not want to recieved the emails?

you cannot opt out of recieving a PT to my knowlage but you can cancel the emails nofications

I just want to get rid of all the old private topic messages that I don't need anymore, thank you.

Hi,
As Scott says they are actually a conversation and both parties have to trash them and then the system will remove them.

(1) Click Private Topics in the menu bar below the banner.
(2) Tick the box at the end of each PT you want to trash.
(3) Scroll to the bottom and in the "Topic/poll actions:" box select "Categorise Private Topics".
(4) Click Proceed.
(5) Choose "Trash" then click "Categorise Private Topics".

You can also use the same method to create folders where you manage your PT's into categories if you want.
Trashed Topics will only disappear if the other person does the same.

Yes that worked, thank you very much.
