Direct Messages

Can we get direct messages on the forums, it would be nice to share information with others that we don't want public.

Also, maybe we can have a setting to turn on/off direct messages.

Would like to hear more about how the community would benefit from Private Messages.

    I like both of these suggestions. I would like to see direct messages enabled, but I would also appreciate it if users had the option to disable it for their own account.

    In the event that direct messages were enabled, it might be necessary to clarify in what ways community guidelines would differ for private messages vs community comments.

    I agree. I like the idea so when recommending something outside of logos, like my discord server, I won't have to post the link directly, as to be advertozongnit but can just send it to anyone who requests it.

    I agree with Jason, though not strongly. Best illustrated when Joe (staff) goes offline, and the problem's solution remains a mystery.

    Sorry, I am confused. Jason never commented on this post, and I am not sure exactly what you are talking about?

    I think Jason would soon loose (and lose) his community. But effective for Logosians … skip to the chase.
