I voted no. If private messages are added please also add the feature to turn them off.

    Dalila please also add the feature to turn them off.

    There is an item in your settings called "Block private discussions"

      @Laura I think the smartest way to implement it would be like on reddit.
      Someone can write you a message but it is not shown until you accept the direct message.
      That way users are protected from troll-DMs.

      i have not been online for 2 days, is the private massage system now activated? is it possible to block individual users? i don't like to write with perverts (if they find the forum that is the big risk)

        Angelina is the private massage system now activated?

        I have disabled it for a while. Didn't have to configure it

        Angelina is it possible to block individual users?

        Let me check

          ok, i'll be waiting to see what happens next. oh, and in case i forget and i think it's important to say so. thanks for your efforts. 🙂

            Is this now possible or not? I got confused by the whole conservation. I personally won't have a problem if someone wants to chat privately with me. If people are inappropriate, just stop answering.

              i didn't know that you are still working on it. i would make a suggestion that the admins/mods (currently mainly @Ines and you) can see these private chats. i think otherwise it would attract too many perverts. currently the whole forum can pay attention to it, but in the private chat it is not so easy.

                I definitely can through the database because we don't have end-to-end encryption here. Need to check if there are permissions for users/mods. This extension is really complicated

                  ok, i don't know how difficult it is to implement technically, but i would still like it because some users might otherwise feel harassed.

                    They can always complain to me

                    Waste of your time?
