Topic: Can admins read our pms?

Posted under General

This is a question I've had for a while now. Believe me when I say there's nothing on mine I'm afraid of people seeing, but I have been curious.

I know they're called Private Messages, but I've seen users banned before because of pms, so I became skeptical.

Thanks for anything you can tell me!

Normally, no. The Dmail only becomes visible to the admins if it gets reported.

WE CAN SEE EEVERYTHING

Except DMails, but I can say that you have been a reeeeaaally naughty boy :3c

Just kidding. We can't see them unless they're reported

From a technical standpoint, anyone with access to the database has access to everything. Most of the time though, admins don't care enough to dig through database entries to read ERP between two users, unless it gets reportinated.

Oh hey you changed your profile picture. I like fluffy things, hence mine.

And specifically?
Casual conversation, role play, occasionally mental breakdowns, nothing big.

Hmm... so does this mean that when submitting an ordinary ticket, if a link to a referenced message is included it's unreadable by the admin that gets the ticket (since the message itself wasn't reported)?

Yes.

On a related note: can admins read our hidden posts (without going out of their way for it)?

Yes, much the same way that unless you check the box to ignore your own hidden posts, you can still see them, admins can too. However, I don't think they're going to punish you for a hidden post, unless you admitted to being underaged in which case you're still going to get banned for being a minor (Which I completely agree with, if you are a minor gtfo)

What if you edit the comment? Can they see the old version?

I made a dumb comment on this very thread in fact and now I'm afraid admins are judging me

I can see this being useful from an artistic standpoint.
