PM's are not read. I've never read one, nor do I have access to read them...neither do mods. It simply doesn't happen. Basically, IF I wanted to (which I don't and never have), I can't access PM's nor can any other member of the moderation team. It's not within our abilities in our positions.

PM's are that...private messages. There's very little that we can do regarding them, though we do expect members to uphold the guidelines there as well to the extent that they should not be abused for threatening, profane, or harassing contact with another member.

The above would apply to deleted messages as well...

I would say that DocJohn has access to the maintenance end of the PM's in regards to the software and site maintenance.

If you have any more concerns regarding this issue, or any other administrative issue, please contact myself, LMo or DocJohn.

Thanks!
