Private Discussion Ethics

In this case, the harassing PM's should be shared with the mod being asked to take action. It doesn't need to be shared with anyone else though.

In my opinion, if it was sent as a PM, it was intended to be private. Other than being shared with a mod as evidence, it should stay that way.

Yes. This is the point I was originally making to RK when he shared the PM.
