  • I tried to send a message to a mod about a question that got deleted, so there was no way for me to do that with a flag. I ended up flagging an unrelated post and explained the flag description, but that seemed rather klunky and like a misuse of the system.

How to send message to mod other than by flag.
Is there a way to send a message to a moderator without raising a flag?  If yes, please explain.  If no, consider this a feature request.

I tried to send a message to a mod about a question that got deleted, so there was no way for me to do that with a flag.  I ended up flagging an unrelated post and explained the flag description, but that seemed rather klunky and like a misuse of the system.

What's the right way to do this?
