PMs not possible from scratch?

from Demigod Forums

How does one create a PM from scratch?  Do I have to see someone's profile before I can PM them?  I can't manually enter their screenname?

 

Thanks!

All you need to do is click on a users name to the left of the page in a forum... a dropdown menu will appear and you can select PM from there.

It's not possible. You have to find a post, or reply by that person to click on their name to PM them.

Alternatively, you can try #1 and if he or she isn't the correct one then increase the number by one and so on. It might take some time, but eventually you'll reach the correct member. ;)
