    I read it as YES to all of them.
    Didn't surprise me particularly that it's possible.

    Thanks for posting that, Sam.

    Any computer experts out there? My system any good?

    EDIT: Where did it go?

    I don't know if we can or even why we would, but I assume the admins can and since the admins are mods..:shrug:

    You would because sometimes people forget their passwords - on a lot of systems/ forae it's automated, but on some the mods/ admin can access it.

    Alright, then. Please disregard my PM then, if it isn't too late.

    In any case, my questions have been answered, so this thread is free to be obliterated upon your approval.

    No problem, I suggest you remove your location. This is the www.

    And don't just delete the post, the information will still be there. Edit it out.

    It's okay, I can take care of myself. Thanks for your concern though.

    Yes.

    No.
    Admin's can change your password. Don't think they can see it.

    No.
    Pm's either.

    Yes.
    But only recently.
    We used to be unable to.

    Yes.

    No. No one can.
    If you forgot your password, you could send email via Contact Us and you'll receive new one from administrator, which you could change right away.

    No. Only admins can. Your registering e-mail.

    Yes. In the "Who's Online". The only difference is asterisk besides your name that reveals your invisible status.

    No problem. Feel free to ask.

    Moderators see all. Know all. Govern all.
    You obey the moderators.


    p.s. Moderators even see dead people.

    Ah. Yeah.
    I read that like he was asking if we could get into his email. I thought that was a dumb question. It would make some sense if, by email, he was actually referring to pm's.

    I meant can they find out what my e-mail address is, even if I have set it to private. For example, if I signed up with an e-mail of sciforums@hotmail.com and set it so that regular users could not see it, could moderators still view my e-mail? That was what I had meant. Sorry for the confusion, but Plazma gave me the answer anyway, so it's all good.

    Actually, I have a little correction.

    It is possible for Mods to see your e-mail address (registering) through post reports.
