    I know that Mods do not. At least on the forum I mod I don't have access to them. Not sure about admin though.

    You said something bad about a mod in a PM and now you're worried aren't you. Uhuh. Maybe we can and maybe we can't. How you like them apples?

    Sourdough,

    about that PM I sent you last week - the one where I wrote that Chris and Sarge and Rick and Crash had to be 4 of the greatest guys in the whole-wide-world - please keep that absolutely private, okay?

    Thanks!

    I have always wondered if you guys just have all these random pictures saved for moments like this or if you just google to find photos that are relevant? Either way they always make me laugh.

    Actually, I do have a few on reserve in My Favorites. They're for those "rare opportunities" that sometimes present themselves. I keep 'em in my "2dumb" Folder.

    The Admin can set vBulletin to allow him to read PMs by installing a hack for that or by accessing the privatemessage table directly in the database.

    I was an admin on a site that used vBulletin that admins were definitely allowed to access PMs. I am still a super moderator at that same site and I can not access PMs at all.

    I think the guy who owned the site may have been reading PMs because he started "hearing" that people were talking about him behind his back. LOL

    Chris isn't much for hacks so I'd doubt very much that he's added one for that. I certainly can't see PMs and don't have a need to.

    As a supermod on another sight, I can't see PMs. But I would never, ever underestimate the person who owns the site.
