I was just wondering what people thought about this.

PMs are easier, for me. I don't often check my email, because I never think about it. PMs give you that little popping up message. However, if I'm talking with a group (more than just me and the other person), I prefer to use email, because otherwise it's too much work (cut and paste! Pressing a button
three times
!).

As a mod, I prefer email, if only because it's usually checked more often than the box. However, as a player, I sent my confirmations, target choices, etc, through PMs. Mafia/Mason discussions usually on AIM or email.

As a mod I prefer emails for night choices, because I like to keep an archive of my messages during the game. The PM is limited. For sending and receiving info when playing PM's are just fine.

I prefer PM's for communication with the mod. It's a lot easier. You get a message when you enter the forums and I do that more often than checking my E-mail. But when you're in a group, it's easier to use E-mail. Like more people mentioned, you can't send a PM to more than one person at a time.

I don't know what's better for the moderators to use. Like I said, I prefer PM's but I can imagine that it would be easier for them to use E-mail. Especially when you want to keep all your mail.
