When making PMs you can ask for a receipt. And the way the popup message box appears, it asks a Yes or No question, but the buttons are labeled "Ok" and "Cancel"... and each time it confuses me, and I force myself to think of Ok as Yes and Cancel as No.

Wondering if you could change this, just... for my mental stability sake. ;)

wait, so if you click cancel, it doesn't send one? I did not know this, in the two years i've been using this board . . . learn something new every day . . .

If you click cancel, I believe that it just means you don't get a "read" receipt.

See, when I first read the Ok or Cancel, I immediately think "I want to send this PM, so OK... and Cancel means 'Don't send PM'"... So, ... yeah...

yeah, seth is right, its just asking whether you want a reciept or not. not whether you want to send the message...

Still isn't fixed.

Is it something that can't be fixed, don't care enough to fix it, or what?

can't be fixed... it uses a standard javascript confirmation box. it's up to the individual browser as to how to actually implement that, but I'm pretty sure all the major ones use "OK" and "Cancel" as the button labels.
