Private messages out in the open...
 
I would like to address a small transgression that I've been seeing as well as any other staff member on here who knows it's in the wrong no matter how right any member of any status he/she believes it is. Here it is...

Anything in a Private Message that has a private conversation between a member and another member, and a member and member of staff should not be anywhere out in any forum, thread, post, etc.. This is something that should not happen and if you know what's good for you, please don't take any talks behind closed doors out in the open as it creates an absolutely negative impact onto any situation. Doing this is like putting a target on someone, and those not in compliance will be dealt with accordingly.

And a final note is just keep the thread as civil as much as you wanna do your best to stay on my good side.

Thank you, and Ciao for now!

We're talking about how anything in private messages should not go into any open forum.

What's happens in las vegas stays in las vegas or in this case what happens in private messages stays in private messages. :violent2: common sense/courtesy, it's all bueno.

I knew there was a reason why I turned off private messages. :)

I want to know what this is about exactly :-p

I may still be in college...but I think when it says PRIVATE messages...well...anyone with a f*cking brain can realize what it means!!! sort of sad that full grown adults would do such childish cr@p

You make very good points, thanks for puting that out there.

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
This is so true. PM means "PRIVATE MESSAGE" not "PUBLIC MAYHEM".

hibby50 05-26-2009 09:34 PM

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
Thanks everyone for your full-hearted support... however, let's not get TOO hostile in this thread...

guitardoc64 05-26-2009 09:48 PM

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
Hostile? Whatcha talkin about hibby? Sure there are apparently some strong emotions displayed here in this thread but to me it's a no-brainer. Keep the private stuff private. Simple.

What's TOO hostile? I'm gathering wood and lighters for the public burning at the stake right now. Am I going too far?

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
Alright everyone, just chill out. For some of you that act like you don't know what I'm talking about, why don't you take some time to read the first post please. That's enough of highjacking this thread with all the finger-pointing crap on here.

BigDiesel07 05-26-2009 10:04 PM

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
Good point and well taken Blas... Hope this is not needed to be repeated in the future...

:scratch: What are you talking about? I just read the entire thread and didn't see any finger pointing... just people agreeing with you. Are you feeling okay?

Mattemer 05-26-2009 10:41 PM

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
I'm thinking the main point is, let's all act like adults and just not do this (although i'm assuming the majority of us don't). And while I'll admit i'd like to know specifics, it's none of my business, and displaying details would only cause more discussion of said drama.

Wait, what did i say?

No no no... That wasn't for you. It was for the people who didn't fully acknowledge it and the people who are giving this thread a tad bit of tension. Is it not ok for me to keep this thread from taking a bad turn?

:headbang:No I agree with you blasphemous_prime. I wasn't trying to be hostile in what I said sorry I capitolized the wording, wait minute no I'm not what is said in private needs to stay private. Cause when we talk to someone in pm you figure it will stay in the pm and yes and privacy and trust I feel strongly about.

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
so if i have a private message with somebody and they give me some awesome advice or something positive that can add to the site in a good way, and i want to share, do i just say that i was talking to "joe ppcgeek user" about this...blah blah blah? instead of i was in a private chat session with "joe ppcgeek user".......

this is a serious question, as some people are too afraid to post postive/usefull stuff cuz of the flaming they think they might incur....i know ill get flamed for this, but i know somebody else out there is thinking the same thing...

For something like that, just check with the person you're talking to. If they don't care about posting the message, then go ahead, and kindly state that you have their permission to share the conversation. That is a different situation than what's being discussed here.

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
No wonder so many people are confused, the whole first paragraph of the first post is gibberish. JD from the Stern show is more articulate.

I think I can translate though... "Private messages are not to be posted in public forums" .

I made myself pretty clear and explained what you translated already, so please be careful with your words. Since I take pride in my logic, can you take anything away from me for implying it? And I'm also leinent enough not to red flag you.

I thought you were very clear and concise, I haven't been here long, but I know it's sad that it even needs to be said. Common sense people :) LOL

Thanks for posting this info. Hopefully this will be the last time. Nobody likes a blabber mouth.

its real smart to insult the mod

indagroove 05-27-2009 06:53 PM

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
It was me, OK.

I posted a PM from a mod in the VIP forum, and a mod posted a PM from me too. We disagreed about something. I'm over it now and apologize for being a bad boy. Lets move on to making our phones better, ok?

I think you can close this thread. Peace.

chino331 05-27-2009 07:16 PM

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
I agree, lets just close this thread. What's been done is done - lets just move on and put this in the past! This site is about our PPC's, not on who did what wrong...

That's why we are here isn't it :thumbleft:

Re: Private messages out in the open...
 
Alright, we'll all move on from this and makes ourselves better besides our phones. That's called leading by example, and that's something that a good number of us do our best at.

If the other party gives permission to share the "info" out in the open, then of course you can (given its within site rules and regulations)
