Forum Suggestions / Questions

By Stexe, in The Crystal Ball and The Wishing Well

OK, well I looked around and couldn't find a "general board" where people just chat or ask questions not relating to any specific title. I figured this was the best place to post, but I think there should be a place where people can just chat about anything.

Anyway, my question is how do you contact someone on the forums? Someone sent me a friend request with a message in it, but I can't find a way to send a reply, as there is no "contact member" or "send a private message" or anything. Seems silly not to be able to contact fellow gamers to chat. Or maybe I'm just missing something, but it doesn't seem obvious and I've used a ton of other forum systems and this is not very intuitive.

well, apparently you can send messages only to those who are your friends; go to your profile, then to My Friends, and there's a little message icon next to each friend's name.
