DZComposer Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 On the old SFO, admins were able to read PMs. At the request of a another admin, I have re-activated this function on this version of SFO. Don't worry, we will not go snooping though your PMs (I've creaded a staff policy against it). This is just an added means for us to track down trolls. This means that if you are harassed through a PM, an admin can now verify that it happened and allows us to better moderate the forums. If you feel that an admin is snooping on you without just cause, please e-mail me immediately with the evidence you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo K. Lighthouse Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 So does that mean profanitys and profain comments are still discretioned in PMs(not in the context of slander)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XG Fox Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 It's more of a troll-killing measure. In the past there have been a lot of trolls working through PMs, and before we could read them, there wasn't much we could do. With this, someone could tell us that they're receiving bad PMs, we could go check and see what's going on, and then take appropriate measures against the person sending them.

EvolutionSFox Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Dwight is overrated. J/king. But I'm pretty sure you can still use profanity in PMs... just not in a trolling and offencive way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
