I joined RAT a few days ago but had difficulty in finding information that I wanted (I still do). I looked in the Rules and saw in the final paragraph that I could contact one of the Moderator Team. I sent two PMs to Jasper Oorthuys but got no reply. I was a little surprised but assumed that he was too busy to respond immediately. I then had occasion to send him a third PM but this time, after sending it, I clicked on his name. A note came up that his account was barred. Presumably, this was to prevent his becoming overwhelmed by PMs from all and sundry, which I can well understand. However, there is not much point in the Rules advising us to contact the Moderator Team when in difficulties, if they do not explain the best way of doing this and warn us that the most obvious method, by PM, is not allowed.
