What do tou think of active producers sending pms? Ive gotten some from agents who don't post, but some from respected members in the forum. What are your thoughts?
I think JD is just trying to warn you of "shady" recruiters and outfits. Many of them won't do it out in the open, but they will PM you in a heartbeat.
There are many agents who won't post on the forum, but they will PM you. Probably nothing wrong with that unless they are trying to recruit you.
Other than that, not one thing wrong with PM'ing.
