Post What's wrong with Private messenger?


What's wrong with Private messenger in here? Is there any? Or am I a blond?

That's it

I don't think you can do that here. The point of a this forum is to help peoples answering their questions and sharing that with other who can come across the same problem. You can, however, send e-mail to a given member (if he/she allows that), by clicking on their username, but that is pretty much it.

From this thread:
Quote:
Based on the feedback I received ... I am going to implement the contributing member idea. For $35 a year you will receive the following:
- Contributing Member will be added to your user title
- You will have the ability to turn the 468x60 banner ads on and off
- Private messaging will be enabled
- Most importantly you will get the warm and fuzzy feeling from knowing that you have helped what I hope you consider a great cause

There was some concern that adding contributing member to the users title may negatively impact the community spirit that we have achieved. If this becomes the case I will remove it. For now I think it is important to acknowledge those that have helped.

I would also like to reiterate a few things.
- Becoming a contributing member will in NO WAY entitle you to priority support.
- Anything you were able to do for free before this was implement you can still do for free!
- The majority of development on this site will remain focused on all users. Some additional contributing members only benefits may be added, but most new features will be for all.

You need to be a contributing member in order to use Private Messaging thru this site.

Moving to Website Suggestions as it's more suitable there, as this is not a Linux technical question.
