Are there any rules about the use of private messages? I mean, recently I sent one about a topic on the board and it was the pasted on the board for all to see. Does the word Private not mean anything? Im not angry or anything  as no harm was done, I just didnt expect it my message to go from private between two people, to being open to all.

    Consider EVERYTHING you put on the Internet open and visible to everyone, because it technically is, really. I tend to avoid private messages because there really is no point.

    Simple: I felt it was cowardly of you to try to continue the argument privately. There was no reason for it, and I wanted to respond publicly.

    Now, if you had gone off the chain and filled that PM with insults, that would have been perfectly fine, and I wouldn't have wanted to bring it back anywhere or do anything with it.

    There's your tip for the future: insult me if you want it to remain private. :lol:

    Tell you what, leave any messages I send in the Private system as private and I wont insult you like there's no tomorrow. Personally I don't resort to insulting people when ideally things should be discussed in a logical and civilised manner. Id rather have messages in the Private system be exactly that...private, otherwise that system has no reason for being.

    I don't want to insult you or anyone else as I have no reason to. I just can not see the point now of using the PM system if its key first word means didly squat.

    Bondm16,


     


    Your only recourse it to contact the site owners and moderators about Tallest Skil. When he is offensive report him. Trying to reason with him will not work. He is a bully and will not stop until you report him to people that can do something about it....

    Private messages is a good option if you do not insult a person in a social place or at the place where the many people present and it not bad to hide your privacy.
