If you go to your profile, the buddies list says: "The buddy list is used for starting new private messages". So how does one send a private message?

You don't. I emailed the forum about this and they say that this facility has been disabled.

It's like The Prisoner. They don't want us to post here - or anywhere else! Please, mods: I've had an operation of the tendons on my arm that means typing is really, really, painful, so can't you understand why it's infuriating when anything I DO type disappears? There are no rude words or insults or references to public figures or links to other sites, so PLEASE leave me alone!

I tried this so I could contact Amanda after her contribution to the recent C4 call centre documentary.

We had been chatting on the forum about that programme and I thought I would say hello "in person" as it were.

The private message system didn't work, so following a series of clues discreetly left on here, we made contact that way instead.

We were very much hoping they would be spotted by others, but sadly not this time.
