Post How to Contact Forum Members

Here is some info on how to use this and other contact options. Keep in mind that not everyone wants to receive private messages or email from other members, and may choose not to enable certain features on their forum account.

Contacting Forum Members
Private messages, instant messaging options, and contact by email are available, but only if the user has enabled these options in their public profile.
If a member chooses to be contacted, they need to enable these options in their public profile.
Click on the User CP link at the upper left of the forums to go to your User Control Panel. (You must have an account registered on the forum, and you must be logged in).
Click on "Edit Options", and scroll down to "Messaging & Notification"
