Is there a pm/private message option on here?

I am pretty sure there is an option to privately message a member, but I don’t know how to do it. Can I anyone let me know? Thanks!

If you click the little envelope icon in the top bar, that will take you to your pm inbox :)

I saw that, but I don’t see any option to create a new conversation

If you are a minor then due to legal requirements you can't private message people I'm afraid!

Oh whoops! I think I might’ve entered the wrong birth year! In my account details, it says ‘2006’, even though it should be 1994. Can an administrator fix that??

Thats really odd because I don’t know why it says 2006.

I appear to have a similar problem. I have an inbox with a welcome message in it, but do not find any affordances of ways to send messages. I'd message an admin to help, but ...

Thanks

You need to have 20 posts to be able to private message someone. It's a measure to reduce PM spam.

You can always respond to the welcome message, even if you have never made a single post. Every week several new members do so. You just can not start a new PM until you have made at least 20 posts.

If the rules regarding minors and 20 messages aren't impeding you, you can also just hover over the member's name you'd like to start a conversation with and you'll get a popup...
