    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
    There is no expectation of "privacy" when communicating with strangers over the internet.

    If you think there is, then you're pretty f*cking stupid.

    I think it's against this board's policy to post pm's. Not sure because it isn't an issue for me.

    I think it was added to the rules to discourage personal attacks in the open forum. But I certainly wouldn't PM someone something that I would be embarrassed with if made public.

    Sadly. You are correct. The notion of anyone being so illbred, low class etc they.would do that is a concept I will never understand. To violate a trust of that magnitude and have no moral switch that at least says "this is wrong but.I am proceeding anyway" is someone that has the moral compass of a pack animal is hard to understand. I just thought of something. In my career we had.to.maintain files of required personal info to open an account. SEC law. We also had to keep.banking data on file etc. I generally had 150 accounts. Over the accounts , new accounts emerge efc. So.no lees than 500-600. I had access to any file in that office of every brokers.client files. I never one time thought " hmmm .here.lies the
    Data of very wealthy individuals, corp entities. Bingo.
    An.of such was not.once thought of...of more interest was we.did not.have s rule to guard access. Why would we need that?? Ill say this much. Go ahead. Stick.your finger in my face and.have the gall to suggest to.me my ethics could even be considered as less than 100% . see what happens to the finger
