Veteran Group Added
#1
So the admins have been monitoring these nonposting accounts. A handful has been banned since last night. We've noticed that even though they never post or contribute, they've been in the private messaging system quite a bit. I don't know what's up with that, but I suspect it's nothing good. 

I've created a new group. All of us fall under "registered user" and that is where we get our permissions to private message others. Now, there's a new Veteran group. If you have posted more than 10 times, you are automatically moved to the new group and still have permissions to private message.

IF you can't private message, please let me know and I'll look into it further. If I hear no complaints, I'll assume I got it right and all is good.  = )

We want anyone interested in van life/rv life to be able to research fully; however, we do not want spammers or scammers finding a way to scam or bother any of our members.

Wondering, do you as admin. have access to read those PMs at all?

No there's no way to read PMs. That's a good thing for normal use of the system.

I'm thinking there's absolutely no "terrorist group" aspect to this lol Just some scammer/spammer types.
