    I suppose so, yes; Which then prompts me to wonder why the "Allow private email replies to this message" checkbox remains on the Reply To Message screen; :laugh: I've just realized my brain did something funny. It somehow slipped into code-mode and ended the sentences with a semi-colon instead of a period.

    Legacy? Maybe to be restored in a future? I think it is easier to just make IF (Status == Protector ) email = visible; than redo the whole sit to delete the link and its implications / relationships with the personal profile and so on and so on.

    M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

      If given by CP staff manually Would you like to elaborate on the criteria for being granted? Provided it is not a long diatribe. Thanks

        Official definition: These dedicated members help ensure that a million members sending hundreds of articles each week do the right thing. They can moderate and remove inappropriate articles, edit eye-straining formatting and move under-performing (or recovering) articles to and from Purgatory. If you see an article that needs attention then let these guys know. Spot them in the forums by their protectors icon protector. My additions: Help the site against spammers, clean up messes, be moderated and intercede in discussion to keep things civilized...

            I am not sure. To ask for help you can use the Bugs and Suggestions[^] forum. Over there the Staff read often the messages @sean-ewington the check in the privileges list, that's soemthing that should maybe be changed to avoid missunderstandings linke this? That's only visual, should be doable without affecting other stuff, shouldn't it?

              I've never done it before, but on a forum thread, if the member is set up to allow private emails, you can click the Email button on their message, and it creates a form that looks like a normal forum thread response, but says, "this won't be posted on the site."

              Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject
