I would never do this again, it's wrong.

How did your members find out?

And I am on alot of forums, is there any way to keep administrators from reading my crap, when I am just a user there? It may be worthless crap I get, but it is my worthless crap, not theirs.

I want to be able to hide forever, and have no moderator read any of my stuff. Any help there?

And also, when I am in charge, I don't think it is right to be reading ANYTHING that someone does not explicitly send to you.

hide forever.. i was think about this. like making a ghost admin. one that had no profile, name, rank, just someone that can post out of no where and no be contacted... hmmm. but i guess you are right, it is wrong to creap into other peoples stuff but whatever people want to ad to their site is fine.

How to keep people from reading your PMs.

Option 1: Don't use them. Use email instead.

Option 2: As soon as you get a PM, copy/paste it into Notepad, save and then delete the PM.

on a couple of occasions forum members have asked me to solve the odd prob with their messaging. I just logged in as them taking their password from the system and went to their control panel. I really felt uncomfortable doing this. I run a forum where discretion is paramount and I would never dream of doing this except with full permission.

I think the validity of this hack depends a lot on the board it's used on. This would be very useful on my board, where there tends to be a lot of '+++++ing' between members, and we could do with an easier way of investigating people causing problems. (as opposed to phpmyadmin grrrrr!)

Hasn't something like this already been created for VB?
