conversations , private messages, new members etc.

There seems to be some confusion regarding visibility of some postings. I know I was confused.

The Profile Posts are visible. But Private Messages / Conversations can only be seen by the members of the conversations.

In general it is still not prudent to write anything about anybody you wouldn't want them to see/read.

reporting posts to moderators should be limited to demonstrable rule breaking Ethan's Rules

We have many new members here and some may not understand the "report post" function.

Posts should be reported when members are breaking one of Ethan's very short list of rules.

Ethan's rules

Not to ask general questions, etc...

Bump... the "report post" button is not for conversations.... IT IS FOR REPORTING POSTS TO THE STAFF

JR

 

[JohnRoberts]

and do not post comments in the tech docs forum

And if you want to converse with the moderators how would you do that, especially if you are a newcomer and don't know who they are?

maybe just ask?

That is not how the "report post" mechanism has been misused.

We have lots of new members, some are not native english speakers so likely confused.

Seems time for a reminder with so many new members signing up daily and a few misusing the "report" function .

The report button is only for filing official complaints about posts that break our short list of rules Ethan's rules.
