Hello, I am a moderator at https://prodigy-game.discourse.group/ We are slightly concerned as to what some of our members are saying in their DM’s and PM’s. Is there a way for me to access them? Other than impersonating.

As far as I know, no you can’t. You’d have to impersonate the user like you mentioned above.

Is there a way for admins to see dms?
