Jeniveve Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 When someone's email address is hidden on this site does that mean there is no way to send a message to this person or contact them unless they respond to a post and happen to read the reply? Or, is there some way to send a site 'private message' or contact them through the site in some way?

paul2463 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 to all intents and purposes that information is hidden, it is hidden from noobies only because anyone could come on here and sign up and start to PM people and email them, so to prevent scammers these services are only available to people who have shown a level of trust Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/48620-how-to-contact-another-user-whose-email-is-hidden/#findComment-238081 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeniveve Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share Posted April 25, 2007 OK, thank you very much. May I ask, is that level of trust only defined by the user or is it related to how long you have been a member and how many posts you have made?

redbullmarky Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 i do believe it's down to your post count before you can sent PM's, but if someone has their email address hidden after that, it's hidden for a reason. I'm not sure what the post count for getting PM's available is - not many I don't think - but please don't start firing off random posts to get your postcount up. (not saying you will, just pre-empting a common one ) cheers Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/48620-how-to-contact-another-user-whose-email-is-hidden/#findComment-238106 Share on other sites More sharing options...
