What's the point of having PM enabled on your forum if you are going to look at what others are PMing to each other? Doesn't that go against the word "Private" in the phrase "Private Messaging"?


PMs are private from all other members but admins have rules for what can and cannot be discussed on their forum.

Let's say I have a business forum for my sales reps. What if members are sending PMs to other members trying to sell them stuff that is in competition with my company. That's not the purpose of the forum, so I would tell those people to stop. Or what if people start sending adult material and I have a rule against that. Or worse, what if some members are discussing something that promotes illegal activity... I surely don't want people to use my site for that.
