not mods but admins can apparently, why? got something to hide?
My message count is wrong and has been for ages, doesn't hurt tho!!

IFM try the shift and f5 trick on your message page

I don't think admins can either, but as I'm not one, I couldn't tell you for sure

[ifm]

shift f5 does nothing
maybe my function keys are disabled?
Tikay said that the site owners could once, so i assumed that meant admins (maybe not iron) as they are the owners/shareholders.

Thats what I meant

[ifm]

didn't do anything (it refreshed but no change), it doesn't matter though.
I did mention it to Iron once because i thought it might be a symptom of a bigger problem.

This needs nailing.

Nobody except YOU can read YOUR PM's. Simple as that.

The "owners" - by which I assume it is meant "shareholders" can NOT read any PM's except their own. All the shareholders have "Administrator" status, plus one other - Ironside. Plus there are currently 6 Moderators.

ifm says I once told him that "the owners" can read other peoples PM's. I never said that.  I have no idea how that misunderstanding has arisen, presumably my note to ifm was badly worded, or ifm read something into it that was not there.

So, lets be quite clear about this. Unless you let someone else have your Password, the Member is the ONLY person on earth who has access to their own PM's.

If anyone is unclear on this, please post in this thread, or drop me a PM.

Of course, the developer could always get the data from the Database directly.  But that's a bit of work for the privilege of reading other folks PM's.

Hush now The nun. Don't want Chili getting alll jealous on me.

But I once used the Internet Cafe sat Gutshot to do some Forum stuff & forgot to Log Out, I never log off at home, & someone logged onto blonde Forum & found themselves logged in as tikay! Never again!

And in Amsterdam, Thewy & me shared the same hotel, which had a single computer for use of Guests. I logged onto blonde, & found Thewy had left himself logged in. So I had to read his PM's, & who'd have thought it, he's got summat going off with Cochester Kiv. I did always say he was a shade iffeminite. But seriously, BE CAREFUL, that's the only way you can ever access someone else's PM.

As for the post by "Decider", well, is that, in practical terms, a matter of concern? I just don't understand the technicalities of what he's saying,(who is "the developer"?)  but if it IS a problem, well tell us, please.

[tikay]

ifm has kindly sent me a link to the Post I made whch caused some misunderstanding. For the avoidance of doubt, simply add

"...of the Password" to the end of the Post....!

And it would help if I added the link......

I think Decider meant that the person who built the software that the forum runs on, could possibly have access to PMs... but why would they want to?

Other people's messages are no fun, they can't be half as much fun as mine
