PM ability is a privilege that must be earned. Insightfullness and tolerance is what the doctor ordered.

Well, people tend to get abusive in PM's since they can't be seen by the group. I prefer to have what people say out in the open where everyone can see. For myself, I will just simply not read them, but someone who has a sincere comment and isn't out to attack won't know that if they send a PM. If they got a message saying "PM's are blocked", they would know the only way for me to get (read) their message is through the forum.

I want to read their comments, but not the crap spam PM's from those who just want to insult and bicker. It's like spam for email.

How lame! I think "jadarite" is talking about me, however I'm not "people." There must be others that don't satisfy "jadarite."

I answered your question in the pm, what do you want a pickle on top?

pickle on, pickle on top, say whaaa? Razz

I typed "people" because I meant "people". You are not the "special" one. There are a lot like you who think they can PM and admin users on a forum that way without even having the tools given by the forum owner.

This is why I don't like the PM's.

No, you didn't answer my question. You attacked my post like you just did this one. I'll leave it at that. See ya on another thread.
