Private messaging to/from mods and admins for non-supporters?

For a variety of reasons, people may not always want to contact one another via e-mail. Would it be possible to enabling private messaging to mods and admins even for non-supporters?

Actually, given vbulletin's code, I'm not sure it's possible to enable it JUST to contact specific members (e.g. Mods and admins). Seems like we looked at that once long ago, and it didn't fly on code reasons. Can't hurt to posit it to those more "in the know."

I know that one thing that just now struck me is to see if vbulletin, or another company, offers some kind of "form e-mail" software -- a web page where you enter the e-mail contents, and it does it for you. Bad news is, I believe e-mail services were turned off the server to counter soem sort of spam-hijack a while back.

If there's one dragon, it's a solo monster.
If there's five dragons, they're standard monsters.
If there's a dozen dragons, either most of them are minions or your DM is tired of the campaign.

Bah, thought that might be the case. Thanks, Henry.

You can always report a thread, but that's like an open missive to all the mods and admins.
