As part of our new layout launching on Monday, we're hoping we will be able to fix and reinstate the Private Messaging (PM) feature on the community and we're looking for your feedback.
Who do you think should be able to send private messages (PMs) on the community?
Most community forums have restrictions on PMs and do not allow them from day one as it can leave people vulnerable to spam, bots and unwanted message. But what kind of post count, point totals or time on the community do you think is reasonable to be permitted access to PMs? Or is there another option you think could be considered?
As a UK charity, we have a responsibility to consider safeguarding alongside member preferences, so while your feedback will help shape our approach, we may not be able to implement every suggestion.
If you'd prefer not to share your opinions publicly, you can email the team at: community@scope.org.uk
