Private messages
 

Years ago before I owned this site and was just a moderator I was asked by a member if it was possible that I could be reading their private messages. I assured them I could not. As the site owner I now in fact do have the ability to read anyone's privates messages. I don't read anyone's messages but I think it is important to know that there is a way for me to do it. You should also assume it can be done on any other sites as well. I don't like it but that is how the software is.

Would you offer a paid service to summarize our pm's and forward daily texts to us? YOu can pm me if you want! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

So as of right now, you, Obama and Snowden have access to all of our emails. Can you also see me through the web cam as I am signaling you?

Re: Private messages
 

Sefano, great idea because I am lost without spell check so we can use hand signals to message each other.

That is forum software dependent. I can't on the CRG forum.

Re: Private messages
 

I have always communicated on forums with the understanding that Administrator had the ability to read anything posted including PMs... That is just a common sense understanding of how programming works. If you say you can't because it is software dependent that is because you choose not to adopt or use software that allows you to.

Mr. Lillard is a stand up guy for telling us he has the ability and can.

Everything you say on the internet is archived for posterity, and even if you wanted to erase it, someone could always dig it up and use it against you If they wanted to... .

Re: Private messages
 

Read away, Sir......nothing here to hide or be ashamed of. I would've been more surprised if Charley said he CAN'T read them all. Forthcoming to say you can.......but likely won't.

Re: Private messages
 

uh-oh.... no more private tirades against the 'ads' of the group !! haha

Re: Private messages
 

I couldn't care less if you can read my PMs, but thank you for being up front about it [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Charlie your awesome [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Being a business owner with 80 plus employees, it always shocks me that even though we constantly tell our employees that anything done on our network can be seen ..... some continually continue to send the darnedest things [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Ok, so I guess I shouldn't send anymore fully striped or dipped photos via PM anymore &amp;#129299;&amp;#129299;

Re: Private messages
 

It's good to be honest Charlie. When I read this I kinda chuckled and said to myself, I wonder how many people just checked their inbox and pm's after seeing this post?

Re: Private messages
 

Who said I was honest ? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/Charley.gif[/img]

Re: Private messages
 

I said you were a &quot;stand up guy&quot;

Usage example:

AL: Should I worry that Charley is going to jack me on this deal?

Mikey: Charley is a stand up guy, I trust him with my life. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/haha.gif[/img]

Re: Private messages
 

Actually I came upon how to do it when trying to solve a password for someone. There is a box when I look up their profile if I want to edit their permissions there is a tab I can click that says &quot;become this member&quot;. When I become that member I can look at their pm's.

Re: Private messages
 

Everything I have ever said about you on my PM's is true Charley. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/CharleySucks.gif[/img]

I hope you haven't read the risqué ones my wife sends to me.

Being in the Navy, I live my life knowing that &quot;Big Brother&quot; has the ability monitor every key stroke if they so choose. So the fact that any given civilian may have the ability to read PMs on a message board makes the scalawag sailor side of me smile and think &quot;what kind of twisted things can I send that will make the outside reader think, What the ....&quot;
