    I've noticed that on a lot of forums, when someone is offering something some of them won't actually post any information about what they're offering. They'll just say "PM for details"

    Personally, I don't. If they don't put forth the effort to post all the details in the thread, then I'm not putting forth the effort to PM them and find out. Plus, I feel if they really wanted to share the information, then they would just post it in the thread.

    Every time someone pulls the "PM for details" card I think they're up to no good. And it gets on my nerves.

    Do you ever PM them for details? Why or why not? (Or in what cases would you?)

    I don't tell people to PM me for details. In fact, I tell people not to PM me. Of course they still do.

    Not normally, but if they give enough in their post to pique my interest, I might PM to get the full story :)

    According to me,persons who writes "Pm me details" tries to increase their post count and this is a sort of spamming the thread! :mad:
