Do you mean the messages that are sent during each move in each game?

You can access that by clicking on the "Message Log" link and you would see all the messages. You can then copy and paste that somewhere else (e.g. notepad) and then print it.

If you mean the private messages that are sent to you directly. They eventually expire (I think after about 30 days). Although you can get RHP to email the messages to you by clicking on the "My Messages" link (accessed by going to My Home -> My Messages) and checking the box labelled "Email a backup of selected messages". Select all the messages you want sent to you then delete them. Those messages will then be emailed to you.

Unfortunately you cannot get them all in one go. You will have to go to each individual game.

You only have 5 games, so they should all be here:

http://www.redhotpawn.com/core/messagelog.php?gameid=2320189
http://www.redhotpawn.com/core/messagelog.php?gameid=2556433
http://www.redhotpawn.com/core/messagelog.php?gameid=2415587
http://www.redhotpawn.com/core/messagelog.php?gameid=2355258
http://www.redhotpawn.com/core/messagelog.php?gameid=2323154

They will only work for THIRD IN LINE, obviously (wouldn't have thought Russ overlooked the possibility of players reading other people's messages).

Not trying to hijack this thread, but if memory serves me, it seems that at one time I was able to read the message logs from all my finished games and now I cannot.

Was this changed recently or am I just imagining having been able to do that?

I can still read the message logs of my archived games.

Ahhh, I see now. Instead of going to my archives, I was clicking on my public games from my profile and opening them from there. Going to the archives works fine, and all the logs are still there. Thank you!

If you go to your games from your profile, you need to click "View main board", and you'll be able to read the log there, too.
