Rest assured we have taken care of this issue from the admin end

Although we always suggest that personal disputes be kept off the boards and taken to PM, that does NOT mean we will permit the NT private messaging system to be used for harassment or threats etc

The guidelines apply to PMs as well as posts AND emails sent via the NT system

If anyone has received PMs or emails via the NT system that are threatening or harassing, or in anyway a violation of the Guidelines, they can forward them to us and we will investigate and if needed, act promptly with appropriate suspension or warning

Reporting posts or PMs to us is the fastest way to get action!

We usually prefer to keep admin issues off the boards, but as this matter has been open here, we are addressing it openly

I would also just like to remind everyone that even when you may not see responses from us on the board over issues, we ARE working on them! We just prefer to try to keep the forums running without disruption, and so tend to work these issues in the background, via PM.

I hope this assures everyone that we are ever watchful and alert here, and that we do take swift action when needed
