MEMBER VERIFICATION FOR SECURITY

[MOD]

Wondering how can one verify a Member who claims that his/her User Name is "XYZ" on the forum?

Considering I am a Vendor, my account is blocked to send one on one message due to an accident and provocation of few competitors? Appeal was rejected though I have my membership renewed.

Now is there a way to verify that really this guys owns this User Name?

Maybe ask them to “like” a specific post on the forum, even in an obscure thread, with that account?

Your account is not blocked from sending direct messages, only from posting profile posts.
You can still use the DM function but do take note only sponsors can send/receive direct messages.

You have sent DM’s. You have sent me two which I could not reply to because you selected the option that doesn’t allow the recipient to reply. Make sure you aren’t checking that option or you won’t hear back.

Noted with thanks!

So, may I please understand one more thing her. One can only send DM to Paid Members and not the one who have not taken a paid membership? As I only see an option to SEND DIRECT MESSAGE for the paid member?

Yes as only sponsors have the DM privileges.
