Im just curious (not complaining),Why is there a box to add tag's in our mylot private messages? I mean if they can be searched with keywords by other members then they are not very private are they? If I truly had something "private" to share with one of my mylot friends I would want it to be truly "private".

If YOU are logged in then you will see YOUR own PMs. If you are logged out you will not see any PMs at all just as no-one will ever see yours. Tagging them keeps them in order and if you are a person wholikes keeping things tidy they help a lot.

They are there to help you, it is when you try to search among pages full of private messages. If you think some of them are important, you can tag them so you can find them easier later with the search function. The tagging is completely optional anyway, so don't let it bother you if you don't have too many private messages yet.

no, they are still only visible to you, not other members. They are for our own personal reference.

hi bellerophon I was told that nobody can see the tags but you as they are protected. they say to use them to find your message if you have a lot of them that is. Our messages indeed are private only we can see' them. thank Goodness for that.
