Have moderators ever read your personal email/PMs?

In my case I don't know, but I do have a story that semirelates.

At a computer website one day, I saw a pm whereby a mod had copied one of his communications with a member and accidentally put it into my inbox.

What about you? Do you have any stories to relate?

Are you kidding me? I've found AMod's and iMod's Twinkie crumbs between the very pages of my hard copy diary. I hope you're happy now, you naughty moderators! :lol:

If everybody in the world really is out to get you then it's not paranoia at all. It's heightened awareness.

I say that about depression as well. I don't need an antidepressant. I need for bad shit to stop getting me down. :lol:

I'll stop being paranoid as soon as every bastard stops persecuting me and not a moment before.

How on earth does this example relate to the title?

Or do you mean you're surprised that the mods read the emails and pm's sent to them?

Okay....

It doesn't even semi-relate to the title. But like I said, what do you mean by the title?

For me, that's the closest I can come to the title and I never expected to see somebody's personal pm show up in my inbox through a mod's mistake. If that can happen, then it's possible that a mod can read your personal email/pm so I threw it open for discussion.

Hmmm. I was just watching "Genetic Me" on TVOntario. Goes into the amygdala, comparing it to a watchdog, and how it varies amongst people. Anyways, interesting documentary.

Mistakes happen.

I guess Admin could but mods here can't read others personal emails/pm's and I guess it's the same for most other phpBB forum boards.
