Shouldn't we have one? There should be some way that 2 users can talk privately? Or for the site to send feeds to about games, notifications, etc. I like the fact that every Forum has a PM System of some sort...so maybe Armor games should have one too?

I think this may have been suggested before. The staff doesn't add the feature because the moderators need to see what people are saying to make sure they don't spam or start flame wars.

False, kind of. It really doesn't matter if you spam via pm to be honest, and flaming could still be flagged.

Regardless, I don't think the staff will add a PM system. There are different circumstances though. They might make a private messaging system in the future, but for now I wouldn't get my hopes up.

This one is probably on the list of "maybe" suggestions. All of which are a "not now" kinda deal.
There's no definitive NO, and there's no promise of it to come either.

For now, use chats or IM programs. Or get a mailinator email if you're not on at the same time and don't wanna give out your real email.

I'm sure that if this function is added that moderators will have the ability to access normal users private messages. So that would not be a problem. The only thing about PM's though is that they would have to be worth 0ap for the fact that people would be able to spam much easier and get away with it. Regardless of whether or not mods can access PM's, other users would not be able to report it, allowing users to spam and get away to increase in ratio. But there is the xat chat even though it is remotely abandoned, as well as what Zophia said. I do like this idea though, it would make contacting mods about things that you wouldn't want other users seeing, much easier.

That's one of the reasons I want it.
