    Absolutely not. The VB admin/mod area does not have an option to read PMs. Is it possible for a VB administrator to read PMs. ABSOLUTELY

    Simply google "read PMs vbulletin" and there are hacks for that.

    We do not have anything like that on INGO but keep in mind on any forum you browse PMs could potentially be read by admins or mods. If you are concerned don't post private stuff anywhere on forums.

    If INGO is issued a subpoena for any info contained in our database we will co-operate 100%




    But as a level of protection for the owner...I really thought Mods could access all exchanges of information here.

    That's why I have no problem with it. I just assumed it was a given.

    I do not expect moderators to discuss communications between two members, such as rep comments, in the open.

    This.
    Kinda like a doctor's office. You know they have access to your records, but you assume they have the decency not to let the whole waiting room know why you're there.

    I have been a mod/admin on a message board. We didn't use V Bulletin. On that particular message board program, you could read PM's if you added a mod to it. We put it on our board. We only used it once. What we discovered is that it was a pain in the butt trying to figure out who sent what PM to who. It just listed the PM's. Unless you actually put your name or the recipient's name in the PM, we had no idea who was sending the PM or who was receiving the PM. I don't know if the mod for V Bulletin is similar or not.
