    IMHO, just the fact the name of the party sending the PM was enough to violate the privacy inherent in a "Private Message". Had the member said "Someone sent me a PM that was vile and disgusting blah blah blah" that would have been an entirely different issue and I would have thought, well nothing to do with me and since I don't know what was actually said or who said it ho hum. In this case the sender of the PM and perhaps even the actual content since there was a post from the sender that was frankly over the top it could readily be assumed this was also the content of the PM.

    This is not the first time this issue has arisen. Hopefully those sending and receiving PM's will treat them like the Sanctity of the Confessional and keep them to yourselves in the future.

    I would make an exception to messages that were of a threatening nature. Saying you are a bigot and a big dope is not threatening.

    Thats my opinion at any rate
    Thats. Disgusting. Lemme guess..a liberal?.nearly every single violation of.ethics ive had that experiance.with was a deal where the violsted didnt.realize the ethics of the violater were conditional. Someone with.a complete disregard for the privacy and safety of others is generally someone with a very limited range in mstters of.conflict resolution..tends to be low end of food.chain has never had anything to lose and the ability.to a matter in a variety of scenarios. . very crude. Zero.manners..shallow.end of gene pool. Trash.
    Its.unbelievable a rule has to exist. Ignorant ill bred trash as such needs to be perma banned and subject to any and all methlods of torture. I hate ill tempered trash. I hate.violence

    Best get yourself to the opthamologist to ensure that you don't have an eye condition that needs urgent treatment.

    A piece.of absolute human garbage
    Played.a party.lacks.the ability.to tolerate a philosophical difference. The.poster lack the ability to address in.a proper manner

    It was posted on the board
    Nobody.here realized i was raped public.i chose to pretend i never noticed so i would be transparant in the matter as.i.handled it

    Disagree. You can find it. But for purposes of discussion of rules and such it should be left anonymous and general. Members can say what they think of such an act and what should be done. Hopefuly that then informs moderation.

    Dry eyes and/or dehydration can result in blurred vision as well, but it's best to get it checked out.

    My view:

    PMs are not to be shared in any form. If I send a PM to someone, then later he mentions it in any form publicly, then it should be a violation. Even mentioning it without revealing any content should be a violation.
