Private Messages - They are super awesome and you should use them =D
In an effort to continue to move this board back into a positive realm, I really really want encourage ladies to use the private message feature!
I know often times a lot of topics get derailed, so if you have a comment that falls outside the topic and is a direct response to somebody, consider PMing them. This way everyone can stay on topic, and you can discuss your opinions on something more privately.
More importantly, I think PMs should really be considered when your debate becomes more heated. Instead of dragging in the whole forum and causing people to name call or choose sides, if you directly PM the person about your issue or argument then you can get everything off your chest and save the whole forum from getting labeled as drama mongering.
I know we are all strong willed and minded ladies who really want to speak about our opinions and don't want to be silenced, just consider next time you are going to respond to someone in an off topic manner "is this something that everyone on the forum needs to read, or would it be better suited for a private message?" You can still say what you need to say, but it doesn't stir up the whole board in the process.
Hopefully nobody gets mad at me for this? I just know how much we love this forum and how pissed off we get when people say we are just drama, I think PMs can help us move away from that idea =D

I agree. Pm's can keep people from getting banned and can also keep the situation from getting of hand =/

I completely agree with this Cam_chick! :) Just remember that members can still report PM's and get infractions for inflammatory messages.

I've pm'd a couple of women on here when I'd have a quick question and I knew they would know the answer. I always started the letters with "I hope you dont mind me writing you but..." both times I've done it I've had positive responses and really appreciated the help:)
