I guess in a way it is good. But I still don't like the fact that you are reading something that is private.

Yes even though it says "PRIVATE MESSAGE" arent you administrator?

DONT you need to know what your members are talking about?

What if they're planning on spamming your forums?

Are you prepared?

Its not like the members are talking SOME VERY SECRETIVE theres no reason why admins should not view their pms..

after all i rather be safe than sorry

in almost all cases people don't plan bad things using PM on the forum.

Its only fair to use it in special cases.

Such as if you have a paid or special area of your forum, and you need pm logs to make sure people don't give special things from your forum out to non special people.

If you get what I mean :P

Is the 10,000 porn posts really worth the trouble of keeping pm's secret?

I would only look at pm's of a user if I have a feeling that he/she is doing something wrong.

10,000 porn posts would kill your forum(almost killed mine and mine is tougher then most) and no pm spying is not anti TOS

What would kill your forum is if you were away for a while and you came back and found that your forum violated the TOS because of porn postings.

I think that it is called PRIVATE Message for a reason. I feel that this would be an invasion of privacy, even as a Forum admin myself.
