User Control Panel aka User CP ---> Edit Options ---> Visitor Messaging System.
I dont think you get notifications for that, but it helps if you checked your profile regularly. :)

Let's hope so!

I also had to smile a bit at that post. In the superhero story, my character is Gabriel Fret.

Another question. Maybe this is a dumb one, but what is the "Social Groups" option? What does it do exactly?

[_____V_____]

That is to create a "community within a community" of sorts.
Say, you, Ferret, Chrono, Newb and Dante decide to form a group. One of you becomes the group leader and forms the group.
Others become members in it.
You can add your pictures from your album to your group, post in a messaging system to each other within the group, privatise your group etc.
Think of it as forming a Club, per se.

Don't know if I'll use the social groups one. At least, not yet. If it starts catching on and there seems like a good reason for then I might.

I suppose it could be good for commitees of Judges.

That's actually a pretty good idea. That might help some of the stuff that's been tried, but failed. One comes to mind at the moment.
