Messages??
Hi love! I had a question about messaging... is there any way to message someone without pinging them? Like, if they haven’t posted anything on the forum so you can’t ping them, is there any other way to send a direct message? Thanks, and as always, LYBL! (Live Your Best Life).

Re: Messages??
There is private messaging but you and whoever you want to get in contact with both have to have premium.HiLove wrote:Hi love!

Hello! ^^HiLove wrote:ping
If you both do not have premium accounts then the only way you can talk to a player without using the forums (or else pinging them) is by meeting them in the chat but then again it will have to be an accidental meeting since there is no other way to inform the player that you want to talk in chat.Hi love!

A player will only be allowed in chat if they have posted 5 times in the forum! So if they haven't there is no other way to communicate with the player unless you know the in real life or can use another application/media to communicate.
If a player has not posted in the forum before it does not mean that they cannot chat in the forum, receive notifications or get pinged. It just means that when the player replies to you the reply will first need to be seen by the admin. When an admin checks the reply they will decide if it is appropriate to be posted publicly. (This will be done fir the first 5 times)Like, if they haven’t posted anything on the forum so you can’t ping them
As long as you have the name of the player you want to talk to, you can ping them in the forum and they will reply to you but not immediately. If the account is used by a player that is underaged and therefore under the protection of COPPA they will never be allowed to post in the forum, send pms or enter the chat unless they get the COPPA lifted.
