    when I'm relating these wonderful stories of my past, am I allowed to use the real names of people I once knew? like when I named the jerk who showed every teenage boy in the congregation the police report from when I was raped?

    another thing. I tried to PM someone, and I wasn't allowed. and all of my inbox messages have slowly disappeared. is this due to limited storage space?

    I don't know about the names part of your question.. but I do know that pm are only held so many days in our inboxs.. so if they are disapearing on you, that might be why.

    I've shared names of people in my past w/o any censorship from Simon. You just need to know that anything you say about someone can be used should they think they are being slandered.

    It might follow under the guidelines:

    1. Breaking the law
      This includes libel,       condoning illegal activity and contempt of court (comments which might affect the outcome of an approaching court case). You may post a small amount of third party material, but please help us to avoid breaching copyright by naming its author and publication. We are unable to investigate all third party material, so where possible, please provide a link instead.
    2. Spamming
      Please don't add the same comment to more than one forum.
    3. Advertising
      You can mention relevant, non-commercial websites as long as they support your comment.
    4. Impersonating or falsely claiming to represent a person or organisation.
      Please don't mislead other users by abusing our registration procedure.
    5. Posting in a language other than English.
    6. Invading people's privacyPlease don't post private addresses or phone numbers, including your own. You may post email addresses so long as you make it clear who they belong to.

    You could probably use just the first name of the person, lots of people have the same first name, but to use the last name would be connecting the dots and could get you into legal trouble.

    Hope this helps.

    OOPS! I forgot to answer that!

    It could be you crossed paths with the server when it was automaticly cleaning up the board?? Try again later and see if it's okay. It might help to hit refresh too or delete your catche, cookies and the whole damn cookie jar thing........I donno nufin!

    The PM's are automaticly I think monthly cleaned out of your box. Therefore if you have anything you want to keep you will have to copy/save to a word doc or something.
