Can the Admin and moderators (especially the totally cool ones, -cough- Duckeh -cough) able to read the PMs going around in this forum?

No - we cannot. The only way we could read our member's PMs is if we changed their passwords and logged into their accounts - which we would only do in very dire situations - checking you guys private messages without reason is - well, an invasion of privacy, lol.

They are called Private Messages for a reason - only the sender and the recipient may see them. :3

If you have database access (which I doubt you do, since this is run by forumotion rather than off someone's own server) then you'd probably be able to see them in there.

the mod/admins can also see reported pms just like reported posts

Haha~

Butchyeah, what failex said.
Did you want me reading your PMs? ;-; I soh sorry.

By Kat. 25/09/09, 02:55 pm

god but how tedious would it be to find them in the database forums use like 100 tables

but why would you want them to hijack your or someone else's pm's?

<strike>Phew! They can't read them! >D</strike>

Yea ... hacking into the database isn't easy unless you have easy acsess, and even on MY PHPBB3 forum i can't really get to the databases because phpmyadmin isn't very easy to use XD

Hacking into database is easy if you know where the person with the password lives, have good amount of chloroform, ropes, piano wires, hammers and chilli powder.

@CheriLina: WHY!? ARE YOU UP TO SOMETHING YOU SHOULDN'T BE!? :O ...I kid. Razz

Yeah, forumotion won't let us touch our database with a long stick, so you guys are safe. P: Not that we'd want to read your PMs anyway - if they're anything like mine, I'm sure we'd get bored after about five minutes anyway.

@Selphiroth: And that's the point that forumotion takes our asses to court! *dies*
