How To: Sending a PM

So there has been a lot of conjecture that PM's (private messages) went away with this version of the forums. This is not true. The Activity section of a person's personal page is not for private messages, it is for messages meant for public viewing on the Activity feed page.
Follow the steps below to send a private message to another user.
1. Creating a PM from a discussion list screen, a forum thread, or the home screen.

2. If you are on someone's personal page and want to Private Message them.
Both options should take you to this screen:

I tried it out, I think. I may have sent the same message several times.
(Nothing really changed when I pressed "send".)
Or perhaps not at all, I don't see a "sent" folder anywhere.
Have a great day,
Roger.
Looks like the first one did not get sent. I must not have pressed the button hard enough. Second try worked fine.
