Is there a way to private message other members or moderators without clogging up the forum discussions?

Unless you click on davenn's name of course. It appears that users can block conversations but I'm not sure how you do that.davenn said:yes, click on their user name and select " start a conversation "

When I click on your name, the "Start a Conversation" link isn't there - even when I go to your profile page. I think that I've seen some Science Advisors and Mentors do it in the past so that people wouldn't PM them with questions that belonged on the forum.davenn said:seriously ?, you can't msg me ?
people can be put on ignore, but I currently have no one in that status

you can choose "Members Only" or "People You Follow Only", or un-tick the checkbox to disallow conversations from anyone.
To send a private message to a member, go to their profile and click on the "Message" button. This will open a private messaging window where you can type your message and send it directly to the member.
You will receive a notification in your inbox when someone sends you a private message. You can also check your private messages by clicking on the "Messages" tab on your profile.
No, once a private message has been sent, it cannot be edited or deleted. It is important to carefully review your message before sending it to ensure accuracy.
Yes, if you receive a private message that is inappropriate or violates our community guidelines, you can report it by clicking on the "Report" button within the message. Our moderators will review the message and take appropriate action.
Currently, there is no limit on the number of private messages you can send. However, we ask that you use private messaging responsibly and only send messages that are relevant and appropriate for the recipient.
