| Notifications | same page → Notifications tab — event table | Notifications |

Friendship is not required for messaging.

- In search enter a nickname (Enter nickname…, from 2 characters) → select the user.
- Or open a profile → Write a private message / Write.
- In the Message… field enter text (Emoji if needed) and send.
Empty right panel: “Select a dialog or start a new one”.
You cannot write to yourself: “Cannot write to yourself”.
You can Reply to the counterpart’s messages. While they type, typing is shown. Your messages show send / read status.
There are no file or image attachments in Messenger — text and emoji only.

|---|---|
| Message length | up to 500 characters |
| Rate | no more than 1 message every 2 seconds (“You cannot send messages more than once every 2 seconds”) |

If administration disabled DMs for the account: “Private messaging is blocked for you by administration…” (the text mentions contacting support via Telegram or email). On a general chat write ban: “You are not allowed to write in chat”.
Edit and delete your message
Your message menu is available while the counterpart has not yet read the message:
- Edit;
- Delete.
If already read: “Cannot edit a message that has already been read” / “Cannot delete a message that has already been read”.
Delete dialog history
In the dialog header — delete history. Confirmation: “Delete conversation history? This action cannot be undone.”
Dialog message history is deleted (irreversible).
Block and report
Block incoming from the counterpart: confirm “Block incoming messages from this user?” → Block.
After blocking, sending to that user is unavailable (“You have blocked this user”). If they blocked you: “This user has blocked you”.
Report: Report → Report user window, situation description (5–2000 characters) → Send. Success: “Report submitted successfully. Platform administration will review it and take necessary action.”
Translation language
In a dialog, Chat translation language is available (as in Main chat): translate message text; choose a language or Site language — Multilingual, Chats.
New message notification
On a new DM a toast may appear: “New private message from” + nickname and preview. Click opens the dialog with the sender.
If you are already on the Messenger tab, that toast is not duplicated. Unread counts toward the tab / menu counter.
Club broadcasts
The Broadcasts tab — for club creators: manage broadcasts. Broadcast texts are delivered to members as private messages. Creation and permissions — in Clubs.
A club role request can also create a dialog with the founder in Messenger.
