    Moderators can not send PM to users who are not able to send PM's

    I have a usergroup that is not able to send private messages.

    Via the setting in usergroups:
    Create Permissions -> Can create private message -> No

    As an admin I can still send them private messages. But my moderators can not. it there a setting to enable certain usergroups to be able to send private messages to someone (even if they are not allowed to Create PM themselves)?

    Please vote for:
    - Lightbox for all uploads
    - Attachment permissions for unregistered users

    I believe this is by design - only admins can override the PM setting. My understanding is that it's always been this way.

        Why don't you just enable Can create private message?

          I have had new members join and start spamming via private messages. That is why we decided to make a new usergroup that is able to send PM were users with x posts and x days registered are promoted to.
