i just want to Enquire that just how private are the private messages you send in this forum?

In answer to your inquiry, they are only private in that regular members can not read them. The mods can and do read them to enforce the forum rules, so don't think you can sneak anything past them by PMing it instead of posting it.

The mods know all and see all. There are times when I am hesitant to unzip my pants because I worry they might be watching... Laughing

But then I just put on my aluminum foil helmet and the voices go away. Wink

Correction on who can read PMs.
Moderators can't, administrators can.
Currently there are four admins appointed including Good Samaritan, the site owner.

It has to be this way or else every forum out there would be subject to massive PM spam abuse (or worse)...

Better use PGP for your PMs Laughing
