More control for us over incoming PMs

Post by Spitfire »

Hi Admin/Moderators/everyone,

As title suggests, is there any way to give us members control over who is allowed to send us PMs?

Is there anyway for us to have a list of names that it's OK to receive PMs from and that we can edit the list at any time as we see fit and all others are just returned/not registered in the inbox?

Obviously no-one would be able to/can 86 Admin or Mods PMs, but would be nice to be able to block PMs from all other than the following names.

Maybe too complicated but worth asking even though not sure what others think.

:cheers:

If you receive a PM from somebody you don't want it from, simply delete it - there is nothing to make you read it. If you do read it, and feel offended in any way, there is a way to report it. If your complaint is upheld, Admin will suspend the offender's account either permanently or temporarily depending upon the scale of the problem.

I am not aware of the software having the capability to filter PMs, but Admin may come back and say differently.

No.

Just a speculative question, no drama-rama attached.

After ten posts sending and receiving PMs is available to all.

We do strongly encourage those that have received PMs from people pushing their own business interests such as taxis, house rentals etc ... to let us know so we can nip it in the bud - freeloaders that abuse the generosity of this system and its members are not welcome on this board.
