In the forum it's possible to modify the original question to include the correct answer or even save a separate code snippet in the wiki, which is easy to find if tagged properly.

Other users only see your avatar, and thus pms are used for "back-channel" talk instead of email. In a small intimate community like this one, privacy (or invasion thereof) should not be a problem, but that might change if the community were to mushroom in size.
