"It annoys me too. If I post on a forum it is for discussion in the forum. One thread I posted on not long ago was so bad I ended up hiding my profile for near a week
Good idea "
The only thing is friends can't message either |

Someone once suggested changing the age of people who can contact you to 98-99 which might help in this situation x |

Not sure but it's a strange one rather than sharing their opinion and totally agree with you |

"There is nothing wrong with messages in private off forum ?
But perhaps people don't want them 
Ok but still not any harm is there "
It is if the person doesn't agree with being messaged via the forum |

If I wanted countless daft stupid short messages from blokes who are desperate to connect with forum posters then thats not for me. Ithers may humour it. |

If a friend has messaged you before, they can still message you, even if you’re “looking for” changes. Sorry if I’ve misunderstood. To be honest you can still message friends with hidden profiles, too. X |

We get it too, and it annoys me. I posted in status about my weight loss. Had some lovly dm's about it, but now have a few repeat messaging about when we're meet them? It's not a foot on the door to fuck. One more message, and the block button works. |

Looking at this from a different viewpoint.
If you have an active profile and looking for someone, setting age limits, type of person etc, then why wouldn't you want someone contact you?
Posting in the forums shows at the very least you're an active member and have something interesting to say and sets you apart from all the profiles on here that are dormant.
I'm sure I am not alone in knowing what to write anything meaningful in the first message (rather than just 'Hi, fancy a .......' whatever) so posts at least might give a topic to open a conversation. I don't know at that stage whether we'd hit it off or not.

For over a year I was blocked from commenting directly on posts but could comment in private messages. Fab does exclude some people and its really hard to get this rectified - almost like a game of chance. Also, my humour can be quite dark so I.might private message a comment that would offend the "snowflake brigade" on here.
I fully get it some people can be creepy with their private messages but filters can help or..... you could just stop posting on forums. |

Not everyone can comment in threads but they can private message if within the person's filters. |

You can still message a profile that is hidden so friends can still communicate   |

A years detention, seems a bit harsh. What did you post? (oh wait, don't, you may get another years detention (or reflection as they call it now)  |

I was on and off fab during that time. I wasn't "banned" banned but after the two weeks for new profiles to post my comments would never appear on the threads and I couldn't post my own ones. So I'd leave and rejoin |

Oh dear, my best meets have come from off forum contact.
People see you out there and want to say hello I suppose.
If they're rude then I just block and forget them. It's the same when I post new pics.
So, feel free to pm if you wish |

Also if you're going to mention something on DMs from the from use the reply privately or a proper subject line. Otherwise I have no idea what you're talking about. I post on many different threads |
