    I just wanted to double check if it was possible to send private messages to people other than just moderators. When I tried to do this recently, I got an access denied of sorts.

    Is this expected?

    It is possible, but it is a privilege only full members can enjoy

    Correct. You must be a Full Member to send PMs to other members. As a Regular Member you can PM Advisors, Experts, Moderators and Administrators.

    The others are correct, you have to be a Full Member before you can exchange Private Messages with other Full Members.

    To apply for Full Membership, you must have been a member of the forum for two weeks, and have made 50 posts. You can then fill out a short form here, after which the staff will evaluate your eligibility for Full Membership. :slight_smile:

    Of course, as you've noticed - any member is able PM staff members!

    Full Members can only PM other Full Members (and staff). :slight_smile:
