Oh yeah... another fYI... that doesn't just go for this board... other BIG vBulletin sites... such as "elite" ... which is on search engines all the time, will also include your pm's.
The chances of your pm being in the search criteria (because there are soo many members is minor).. but still .. there IS a possibility.
Pm's are a good way to ask general questions.. and a good way to let someone know they have email.. or .. even ... ask something and say.. can i email you etc..
oh yeah, if the person allows it in thier profile, you can email them... ... just click on "profile" under a post.. then click the "email So and So" to send them an email through the board. Then you can respond with your registered email address and it will go directly to them... so the board is then out of the loop.
Remember though, if you get an email through the board.. it is not responsible for the content of the email, we have no way in controlling the content of an email sent through the board's software.
hope that helps all.. and oh yeah, presser is working on getting us in the search engines now, so if you have something you wouldn't want your "mom" to see... i'd suggest you delete it.
delete your inbox, your sent box... and after people get your messages, delete the option that says "message tracking, or tracked messages" too... you'd be better off if you kept it AS CLEAN AS POSSIBLE!
be safe everyone!
