And email functions as well. There is absolutely NO WAY for anyone here to privately communicate with another member short of posting their email address on a public forum in view of anyone and everyone who wanders by. In an attempt to 'protect' the members, we have in fact lost many options.
Almost like politics, isn't it?
(and WHY is this in the Lightning forum???)

Isn't it about time to turn the PM's back on? We can always block people we don't want to receive PM's from. I think a lot of people on here would agree.

E-MAIL DOES WORK
But a Member must have it set up to except other Members
E-Mails
I got an idea.
Hey Doug can we get an OVER-RIDE button so we can e-mail them anyway

As far as PM's - Thats a Steve Decision - PM has never been on as far back as I can remember. If you search this forum you will find his explanation posted a few times.
To summarize - Forums are for one to many communication. PM is contrary to that ... It also uses resources

Doug,
Respectfully, you are mistaken. Steve disabled email a couple months ago. Have you tried it recently? Please, go ahead and see if you can email ANYBODY from this site.
