IBobi - Sending the notification via PM is the standard implementation that I've seen on most internet forums. For security/privacy reasons (as well as many others), can IB please investigate what it would take to change the notification system?
The large number of PMs that would be generated would strain both the moderators' PM inboxes as well as our database. This is not a change we can make at this time.
