Oh if it happens again, you can bet that itll be posted here, there and everywhere. Screenshots and all, wouldn't want anyone claiming they were fabricated like in the past.kenny|1317068652|3026124 said:ame|1317066130|3026073 said:History.

Wow, well I'll say this right now.
If anyone did that to me I'd post their PM so it would not be private at all.
Protocol be damned.

I'm with Yssie.Yssie|1317069079|3026131 said:I would keep mine deactivated except in very specific circumstances: reaching out to someone specific, contacting people regarding GTGs, selling/finding stuff, personal communications about something...
I honestly just have no interest in obligating myself to keep up with discussions and gossip outside of the forums - if it can't be posted online on PS or sent by email it's probably worth neither my time nor my attention. I have enough other venues for drama! I know a few PSers by email and there are definitely others I'd like to get in contact with, though.

I don't want PM's here. I can't stand the drama. It would be horrible. Far too many people with a nasty streak for my liking.
The thing is... if YOU keep yours deactivated except when YOU want to reach out... no one else can reach out to you and if everyone else followed that no one would be available for you to reach out to.Yssie|1317069079|3026131 said:I would keep mine deactivated except in very specific circumstances: reaching out to someone specific, contacting people regarding GTGs, selling/finding stuff, personal communications about something...
